"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.

Finally, I lifted my hand up and knocked.

Footsteps were heard after a few seconds and the door was swung open.

Rebekah stood there, surprised, before a frown took over her lips.

"Rebekah, I greeted.

"Nick"

She narrowed her eyes.

"Is Caroline—"

"Wait"

She cut me off, went inside the room and came back a few seconds later.

With a baseball bat in her hand.

I rolled my eyes.

"I'm here to see Caroline,’ I stated.

Her eyes turned murderous.

"You have some nerve showing up here and asking for her."

"I see she told you what happened—"

"Get out" she snapped.

I gritted my teeth in annoyance.

"I'm not leaving unless I see her’ "Look.

She raised the bat up in the air and pointed it in my direction.

"Caroline is a very strong woman.

Now, I don't know what manwhoric tricks you played on her but for the first time today, I saw her on the verge of tears."

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.
