in?”
‘I’m not even that heavy! What’s his excuse?
‘Seriously? He wants to get someone to carry me in like I’m some kind of luggage? That’s beyond humiliating,’ she fumed.
She was so pissed, but honestly, dealing with a dense, oblivious guy like Jett was just hopeless.
“Whatever, I’ll just walk by myself. If I go slow, I should be fine.”
Jett shot her a thumbs-up. “See, I knew you were the brave one.”
Nicole tried to walk leaning on him, but Jett let go of her hand before she could even get

Then he walked ahead, leaving her behind. “Nicole, I’ll go ask Marley for some spray for your

Nicole was speechless.
‘If he’s really into me, shouldn’t he be all over me right now, trying to help and get close?
‘If I had any other choice, I wouldn’t even consider Jett,’ Nicole grumbled to herself.
He was just a pretty face with a powerful family. If he wasn’t rich and handsome, he’d be so dense no girl would ever go for him.

Nicole just wanted to get out of this jinxed dump as fast as possible. She’d built up a nice little nest egg from her years with the Hammonds, and with Lucent Media backing the crew, she had no choice but to cough up the penalty fee.
After thinking it over, Nicole went to look for Jett.
“Jett. I told Marley I’m quitting the rest of the show,” she said.

“You’re my friend, right? So, are you coming with me?”
She was convinced Jett would go with her.
On the way, she planned to make it clear she was open to the idea of him being her boyfriend.
That way, she figured Jett would have no choice but to stick by her side and protect her.
To her surprise, Jett just blinked and said, “Why would I leave with you? I haven’t quit the show yet.
