Rebecca blinked in disbelief as their exchange made her feel like the intruder.
Catherine whimpered, “Vance, thank you. You’re so good to me.”
“That’s what I do.” His voice overflowed with tenderness and warmth.
She continued her coyness. “There’s one more thing I need to tell you, but promise you won’t be mad.”
Rebecca’s mind reeled. Catherine had summoned him out, so why linger at the door, flirting right in her earshot?
“I could never be mad at you,” he vowed.

He truly was a man of his word, but that faithfulness felt almost ridiculous.
“Vance…” Catherine’s voice turned even more coquettish.
“Yeah?”
“Vance…” Her tone was coy and flirtatious, evoking an image of her squirming. “I don’t like you sharing a bed with Rebecca and doing things with her.”
