Two Can Play (Celeste and Dominic) novel Chapter 624

"No excuses. I will not incur a loss in my business. If you're not here at six, your video will go viral, Tasha. That's not a threat. It's a warning."

Tears rolled down my cheeks. "I understand. I'll be there."

The line went dead.

I sat there with the phone in my hand, tears still falling, racking my brain for a way out. Sparrow had told me not to worry about bringing breakfast to Scarlett, but I still had to be at the hospital. And with this bodyguard trailing me everywhere, how was I supposed to disappear for hours?

I thought and thought, until finally, an idea came to me.

Hiding the disgust I felt, I reminded myself of what I had already agreed to do. I would bear through this for two weeks, and then I would watch Big Bryan pay for everything he had done.

I washed up and applied makeup, doing my best to hide the dark circles under my eyes that gave away my sleepless night. When I came downstairs, I made a small breakfast for myself. I didn't want to go to the hospital hungry. If Scarlett figured out I hadn't eaten, she would only worry. I made breakfast for the bodyguard too.

He thanked me, and while I ate, he went to use the guest room to freshen up.

When he came back, I told him that before we went to the hospital, I wanted to do some shopping.

He nodded. "Whenever you're ready, we can leave."

I waited until eight, when I was sure the boutique would be open, and then we drove there in my car, him in the passenger seat.

At the boutique, I didn't just buy turtleneck tops. I secretly bought a stack of black wigs, long tight-fitting dresses, and shoes that would make me look completely different from my usual self. I paid for everything, made sure it was all well wrapped, and came out. We drove home, I left everything there, and finally we went to the hospital.
