Chapter 515
Emma looked away first. Morgan stared at the television. Tasha suddenly became very interested in her drink.
A cold feeling settled into my stomach, “Mama D?”
She sighed heavily, “Kid…”
I took another step, “What is going on?”
One of the men stood, “The fuck this bitch is doing back here?”
“Sit down, I’ll handle her,” Mama D snapped.
The man sat immediately. I looked around again. The atmosphere felt strange, uncomfortable like everyone had already had this conversation except me.
Emma finally spoke, “You need to leave.”
I blinked, “What?”
“You heard me.”
For a second I genuinely thought she was joking then I saw her face and realized that she wasn’t.
The hurt landed harder than I expected, “What did I do?”
I looked toward Brianna, Morgan, Jasmine but none of them would look at me.
My throat tightened. I walked directly to Mama D, “I came because nobody was answering.”
Mama D rubbed both hands across her face, “Gianna, I think it would be better if you just leave.”
I blinked, “Why?” And then looked at Cole’s men, especially glared at the one who had Brianna on his lap, “And what are they doing here?”
Mama D sighed, “What do you need? Why are you here?”
I swallowed, she had never talked to me like this before, “I wanted to invite you to my showcase in New York.”
The room became even more uncomfortable somehow.
Mama D closed her eyes, “Oh, sweetheart.”
I frowned, “What?”
