"Yeah, I did," Zach said. "I went to NYCU like Penny, but we didn't have any classes together. You went to Harvard, right?"
"Yes."
"Did you get a masters there too?" Tavon asked.
"No, I just went to undergrad. I started laying the groundwork for Blive Tech while I was still in school, so I jumped right into that instead of going for my masters."
"And you were one of the youngest millionaires ever right?" Tavon asked.
"Yeah, I guess so."
"That's freaking awesome. What made you sell Blive Tech when it was going so well?"
"A number of different things. Mainly I just wanted a new challenge."
"And that's why you started teaching?" asked Sierra.
James smiled down at me. "Yes. I taught in New York for a little bit and then transferred to the University of New Castle. I really enjoyed it."
"It's a shame you had to stop."
"Not really. I got everything I wanted from it."
"What, a girlfriend?" Zach asked.
Zach, what the hell?
James laughed. "No. I loved teaching. It was a nice change of pace. But I missed running a business. Well, yeah, and I guess I got an amazing girlfriend out of it."
"Weren't you still married when you moved to Delaware?" Zach asked.
Is he purposely trying to torture me?
James cleared his throat. "I had filed for divorce before moving."
"I was reading about your first wife too," Sierra said. "It's so sad what happened. Were you really childhood sweethearts?"
James looked uncomfortable. "No. It's a long story. Did you guys want refills?"
"That would be great," Tavon said.
"I'll be right back." James squeezed my shoulder and walked toward the bar.
"Oh my God, he's even sexier in normal clothes," Sierra said as soon as James had walked away. "I've never seen him in jeans before."
"What is wrong with you guys?" I said.
Zach laughed. "We're just trying to get to know him."
"No, I agree with Penny," Tavon said. "You guys are being embarrassing. Sierra, stop flirting with him."
"I'm not flirting with him," she said and crossed her arms.
"Penny?" Tavon was looking at me for help.
"You kind of are."
"I'm so sorry. I'll stop." Her face had turned slightly red.
