tell me before my battery died.

Five days have passed since speaking to Bryce. He has been uncommunicative apart from the occasional text message sent at odd hours of the day. I guess with everything he has going on, he forgets that when he texts me at one am Pacific time, I’m sound asleep on the East Coast.
By day six, I’m dying to hear his soothing voice. I also realize that I might have to call Todd to get another client. Bryce left me only money for the two days he thought he’d be out of town and since his plans have changed, I’ll have to adjust mine quickly or else I’ll have more creditors pounding on my door.
My work phone rings and I nearly jump out of my skin. It’s Todd.
“Amanda, how are you keeping up? I haven’t heard from you in a few days and given the news about Bryce’s CFO, I want to make sure you’re okay. It just hit CNN and I’m sure it’s going to turn into a media frenzy.”
“News? CNN? What’s going on?” I’m nearly panicked when I ask that last question.
“Honey, have you not been watching what’s going on with Linden Corp?” Todd asks. “It’s been looping on CNN since noon.”
“I know the CFO died and there was a lot of concern over data security because he was allegedly having an affair.”
“Affair? Girl, the cat is out of the bag. Bryce’s right-hand man wasn’t just having an affair. This man married to a fervent Christian high-society girl with triplets in tow was having a hot, steamy and hardcore affair with Jayden Whitfield. As in multi-Olympic gold medal-winner in downhill skiing man Jayden Whitfield.”
“What? What are you talking about, Todd?” I can’t believe what Todd has just revealed.
“Amanda, Bryce’s CFO was a fifty-four-year old closeted gay man who was having a long-term flaming affair with Olympic skier Jayden Whitfield. Jayden is thirty years Derek’s junior and from Jayden’s account, the affair has been going on for over five years and they were passionately in love.”
I’m in shock. I had followed some of the earlier news, but I had tuned out after a while because I figured Derek was just another guy going through a midlife crisis and seeking a boost to his ego by having an affair with a pretty young thing.
“The kicker is that Jayden revealed that under the sheets and in the throes of passion, Derek might have revealed some sensitive data that affects many prominent and very rich clients of the Linden Corporation.”
“Are you serious?”
“Jayden has leaked a few outrageous sexts between him and Derek and it’s clear that Bryce’s CFO was on the down-low and enjoyed a young man’s cock far more than his wife’s pussy.”
“Todd!”
“Listen, words like cock and pussy are your bread and butter. Don’t you ever forget it. I will say that even I found some of the messages very risqué and I’ve been known to have some hot sexting with men, but the fact that this guy was in his mid-fifties, married with three-year-old triplets and talked this way to his gay lover is surreal. So many men who are still in the closet end up ruining so many lives by keeping the other part of their sex life a secret from the women they’re sleeping with.”
“This is a nightmare,” I reply, still in a state of shock.
“Honey, this is more than a nightmare. Bryce has some serious damage control to do to save face and save his multi-billion-dollar corporation. Data leaking when sensitive data is the core of what you do as the leader in the Internet security business is not good.”
“Oh my God. Poor Bryce. No wonder he’s been out of touch.” I finally understand why he hasn’t been calling or texting. “This is a major blow to his company.”
“Oh, yes, it is. What kills me is that Jayden Whitfield, aka the Johnny Weir of the slopes, is trying to cash in on this and in every single interview I’ve seen of him, he’s more flaming than Boy George during his heyday. It kills me, because not all gay men
