Chapter 8: Only You 

Nick 

"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.

"Last door down the hall on your left"

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.
