Brian POV

I'm currently sitting on the patio upset, that I have to cut our honeymoon short.

My secretary called a moment ago to inform me that my personal assistant met with an accident. We were working on a very important account that can't be put on hold. This changes all the plans I have for our honeymoon.

Since my personal assistant is familiar with the project. She knew the client and his pacific requirements. I taught it best to leave her to oversee that account. Mr Harris is one of our major clients and investor.  I don't want him waiting until my return to handle his account. Two weeks is a lot of time to have him waiting and I don't want a client becoming frustrated and impatient with our services especially one as important as himself.

I have to go back to handle the responsibilities of the company. Granddad isn't here and I don't want to take any chances. I've worked too hard and I don't want my reputation and that of the company to tarnish because I'm not there to take care of my responsibility.

I don't know how Jinette will react. This was never my intention. I wanted to spend all my time with her here without any distractions, work or anyone else. This is supposed to be our alone time together, getting to know each other.

"What have you so distracted and sour all of a sudden."

"I'm a little upset," I answer.

"You're not enjoying our honeymoon. I was just changing, did I take too long." She laments, looking at me worried.

I look up at her."Not at all." I frown at her. Why is that the first thing that pops up in her head? Words couldn't describe how I feel right now about her.

"It has nothing to do with you, I'm not mad at you."

"But you're mad at someone or something," She question.

I grip her hands, placing her on my lap.

"Ok...... is this the part, where you tell me you regret last night?" She asks.

I raised her off my lap. Standing in front of her. I look at her with disbelief. What in the world my mind screams at me, wasn't she in the same room with me last night.

"WHAT THE HELL WOMAN!"

"Well, this is not the way I expect to see you after we you know what."

"Is that what you're thinking. Is that, what you have in that pretty head of yours." I put my hands on my waist looking at her. She can't be seriously be thinking that right now. No, no, not after the night we shared.

"Jinette look at me!" When she didn't, I lift her chin tilting her head so she can face me.

"Woman, never you put that nonsense in thought. I don't regret last night, why would I, YOU'RE MY WIFE!. For christ's sake, why would you even say something like that?"

She lower her eyes, shaking her head.

"What we did last night tied our souls together, you're mine and I'm yours, You crazy woman."

"Then what is it?" she asks.

"My secretary called, Jill my PA, you know her right, she met with an accident this morning. she's in the hospital. She was working on a very important account."

"Really, I'm sorry."

"I.....we will have to cut our honeymoon short, so I can handle it. Since she and I are the only ones familiar with the account."
