He leaned forward, resting his elbows on his knees. “Don’t act so blasé. I saw you earlier. You were practically in a panic. This island needs a lot of work—work that you don’t have the money to do.”
Her mouth gaped. How dare he? “Since when do you know about my finances?”
“Since I did some digging when I wanted to buy the island. I needed to know just what I was getting myself into.”
She wanted to ask what he’d learned, but she didn’t. Nothing good would come of it. Where finances were concerned Infinity Island was in disastrous straits.
Xander gazed into her eyes, making her heart race. “You need to rethink this—”
“Rethink what? Giving up my home? My past? My future?” She shook her head. “If you think you’re going to talk me into selling you the island, it isn’t going to happen. Remember? We already had this conversation.”
“You don’t have to stay here. I can set you up in Athens. Anywhere in the city. You name it.”
She crossed her arms. “I’m not leaving the island.”
“Stop being so stubborn and see what’s right in front of you.”
Her voice started to rise. “I do see it. And just because this place isn’t perfect doesn’t mean I should turn my back and walk away.”
He sighed and got to his feet. Without another word, he started for the door.
“Where are you going?” she asked.
“Out.” And with that he stepped onto the covered deck.
She should be relieved, but she wasn’t. She felt like they’d talked about everything except what he really had on his mind. And then there was the whistle of the approaching ferry.
She rushed to the doorway. “You’re going to miss your ride back to the mainland.”
“I’m not leaving.” He kept walking.
Not leaving? He made it sound like it would be indefinitely, but she knew that couldn’t be the case. He had a business empire to run.
She assured herself that he’d just be here for a day or two. Just long enough to figure out how this pregnancy would affect their lives. Then he’d go back to his life in Athens. And she would remain here on the island.
