“Honestly, I have no idea how to tell her about this. She’ll probably reach out to you guys instead.

“So you deal with it.”

He only got involved because the Hammond brothers asked for his help, and now Alicia’s got a bone to pick with him too.

So it was up to the Hammond brothers to deal with Nicole themselves.

Kevin got the message loud and clear.

If this had happened before, his first thought would’ve been, ‘Why is Ally being so petty?

‘It’s just an endorsement-what’s the big deal if Nicole gets it?’

But now, he realized they’d been way too impulsive.

Nicole had hinted that if she could land ads with both the Hammond Group and the Delaney Group, it would really boost her status in the entertainment industry.

That was why they’d gone out of their way to help her get the Delaney Group endorsement.

Now that he thought about it, he could see why Alicia was so bothered. If their mom found out, she’d probably blame them too.

Kevin rubbed his temples, feeling a headache coming on. “If Nicole contacts you, just explain it to her yourself.

“That way, she won’t have to come to us,’ he thought.

But Collin said, “She called me, but I didn’t pick up. I just couldn’t deal with her crying right

now.”

Nicole’s go-to move for getting what she wants is always turning on the waterworks.

Usually, giving in to her wasn’t a big deal, so he just let it slide.

But right now, he was way too stressed to deal with her tears or play the comforter.

Thinking back, they’d always given in to her because she looked so pitiful when she cried, worried she’d fall apart or do something drastic.

Now that he thought about it, at least half the times Nicole cried, it was because of Alicia.

Every time they sided with Nicole, Alicia ended up getting hurt.

Kevin sighed, “Honestly, I can’t stand her crying either.”

He was already stressed out about Ally deciding to cut them off, not to mention the whole mess with the shares.

Just the thought of having to listen to Nicole cry again was enough to give him a headache.

No wonder Alicia kept saying Nicole was bad luck.

Collin said bluntly, “Hey, this is on you guys-you were the ones who wanted me to get her that endorsement in the first place.

“Now Ally’s got it out for me because of all this. Honestly, I feel like I’m the one who should be complaining to you guys now.

“I asked her for a tiny favor today, and she shot me down and then totally went off on me.

“I’m starting to realize we really didn’t get what was going on before.”

His aunt had done a lot for him, but since she’d passed away so long ago, he honestly hadn’t even thought about her when he agreed to give Nicole the endorsement.

Plus, Ally had always been big-hearted and cared about family, so he figured she wouldn’t hold a grudge over something like this.

But clearly, they’d totally misjudged her-this time, they’d really hit her sore spot.

That’s why he made sure to call off Nicole’s endorsement right away.

From now on, Nicole was off the table for any future Delaney Group endorsements.
