Chapter 697

Nick's POV

"As far as I know, she was supposed to be with you." I didn't raise my voice.Not because I was calm.Yelling at Renee is like throwing gasoline on a fire.Better not, when I can help it.

"Don't play games with me," Renee shot back, her face flushed with anger.

"I know you took her." I blinked, confused.

"I don't know what game you think you're playing, Renee," I said, looking at the note without touching it.

"But I'm not falling for it." She let out a sharp laugh.

"Game?" she repeated, like the word insulted her.
