Chapter 5
I’d known about Carter and Gianna’s plan all along.
They’d bribed a server to spike the drinks–but they didn’t know the entire hotel belonged to my family.
The staff member they’d approached reported it to me right away.
I told him to play along.
We swapped the spiked drinks and gave them to Carter and Gianna instead.
And now, Carter’s buddies–who’d been so smug just moments ago–looked like they’d seen a ghost.
They hadn’t been able to stop anything. Carter and Gianna were already all over each other.
As they shifted, Gianna’s face came into view.
People in the ballroom started whispering.
“Wait, she looks familiar. Isn’t her name, like, Gianna or something?”
“Yeah, yeah–and I think her date was Mason-”
She stopped mid–sentence.
But everyone had already figured it out.
Some guys who didn’t like Carter spoke up, purposely raising their voices.
“Yo, is that Carter Westbrook? I’m pretty sure he was wearing a navy suit today.”
His friend chimed in:
“Aren’t those his boys over there? Just ask them.”
“Hey! Where’s Carter? Wasn’t he with you guys a second ago?”
With all eyes on them, Carter’s crew looked like they wanted to crawl into a hole.
One of them suddenly perked up.
“Carter had to step out for a sec. Nothing to see here, guys. We’ll get these two out of here right now.”
I cut in.
“Why the rush? Just call Carter. That’ll clear things up, right?”
Someone dialed his number right away.
A second later, a ringtone started playing.
And the sound was coming from the pants pocket of the guy on top of Gianna.
