Chapter 6

ELOISE

At exactly nine o’clock, Chase and Zoey arrived. Chase had changed into a tailored gray pinstriped suit, looking as painfully handsome as ever. Zoey clung to his arm, radiating a newfound beauty. Her silky blonde hair was shorter, and I admit it made her even more classy. She wore an exquisite Louboutin baby pink floral dress and a pair of designer stilettos that emphasized her ass even more.

Her eyes widened upon seeing me, and a playful smile danced on her lips.

“Oh my God.” Her gaze scanned me from head to toe. “So it’s true. Chase did find you.”

Found me? I scoffed. As if he even tried.

I mustered a sarcastic smile. “It’s been a while, hasn’t it?”

She chuckled mockingly. “How could I forget?”

“Zoey,” Chase cautioned.

“Alright, guys, have a seat.” Adam motioned for them to join us.

Chase sat across from us, looking uncomfortable and fidgeting. He kept staring at me, but I avoided his gaze.

“I didn’t know you knew Eloise, Adam. How did that happen? Care to tell us?”
