I am sure Dad just said it because he was mad that I came late, right?” he said as he wiped moisture off his forehead. Clearly unsure of himself.Mrs. Miller stopped in her stride and stared at Tyler in disbelief. “You must be really stupid if you believe that.” Mrs. Miller said, seething with mounting rage. Tyler's expression tightened as his nostril flared in anger. “Your name shouldn't be in the same sentence as that bastard, but here we are.” She screamed, pausing to catch her breath, then added, “You are right about one thing, though.

After the way you left things,” Emily shot him a venomous look.Ryan scoffed, “Don't tell me you are still smarting over the fact I chose Kayla over you.

Don’t forget to send me the invoice.” Emily replied.Jennifer nodded, satisfied with the progress they were making. She looked at Emily and smiled. “I can’t believe your dad relented about you joining the family business and even gave you a shop.”“I know, right!” Emily said with a wide grin as she paced back and forth.

“Ryan! What the hell are you doing?” Emily screamed, taking a step back.Ryan jumped off the bed, sweat glistening off his skin as he stared at her. The lady in bed with him covered her face.“What are you doing here? I told you to inform me whenever you are coming over to my place,” Ryan said, breathing hard.“Is that what you are concerned about, and who is the whore you are with?” She walked up to the bed and ripped the blanket off, and her eyes widened in shock. “Kayla…”Ryan ran his hand through his hair. The fact he was avoiding her gaze made it harder to deny what she was witnessing.“I wanted to tell you, Emily,” he said“How long has this been going on?” Emily asked.“We have been dating close to a year.” Ryan said.“Is a joke right?” She let out a humorless laugh.
