"Caroline Stewart?"

I asked the guy standing in front of me, who stared at me weirdly like I'd asked a rocket science question. He shrugged.

"Rebekah Andrews?"

I raised a brow.

His eyes lit up in recognition and I frowned.

"Last door down the hall on your left"

Nodding, I walked over to the door and stood there for a few moments like an idiot, debating if this was a good idea or not.

"Caroline is a very strong woman.

Damn! 1 made her cry? I didn't like what I was hearing.

I never meant to hurt her.

"And if you ever—"

she narrowed her eyes, "—ever do that again, I will personally sneak into your penthouse and smash one of your expensive vases on your head’ I narrowed my eyes for a moment too.
