You can't deny that.""We had nothing, Paul. What we had was a mistake, and I regret it. I regret ever getting involved with you.""Please, Kayla. Just hear me out.

I'm happy with my husband and my children. I don't need you in my life.

It had been a while since he saw Mark, his company's lawyer.The last time they saw each other was about six months ago, and it was at a conference in Las Vegas.
