Liam had no idea what the f**k had just happened. He’d thought Carmen would be thrilled to have her time back and not have to work on the truck. Although they’d had a lot of fun working together, she was supposed to find her real career, something away from her family and the life she was forced into.
Why couldn’t she see that?
Her reaction hit him hard. Something about it felt like it was more than a simple fight over him hiring Rosa. Telling him to leave felt like she was breaking up with him, getting him out of her house and her life. While he drove away, he tried to convince himself he was reading too much into it.
Carmen was upset, and while he was pretty sure that it was about more than him hiring Rosa, he knew she would calm down and then they could have a rational discussion.
