As soon as I walked up to him, Ryan obediently handed me my phone. “Nathan called. Sorry, he called three times, and I was worried he’d wake you up, so I answered.”

I didn’t have time to settle the score with Ryan. I grabbed my phone and went straight into the bedroom.

Nathan’s voice came through, sounding a little worked up. “Victoria, why is he at your place so early in the morning?”

“I’m sick, and he came over to take care of me,” I said, my tone unapologetic.

“Who is he to you?” Nathan’s voice grew cold. “Why would you let him spend the night at your place?”

Thinking about what his sister said yesterday, my temper flared. I answered coolly, “He’s my friend, same as you. If you can come over, so can he.”

Nathan seemed taken aback by my words. His breathing quickened, and his voice carried a hint of hurt. “Victoria, how can you compare us? We’re in a relationship.”

“If I wanted to, I could be with him the same way I’m with you,” I snapped, not holding back.

Nathan went silent, his breathing getting heavier and more ragged. He sounded almost desperate. “Victoria, are you seriously two- timing me? That’s just wrong.”

I burst out laughing when I heard that. ‘Please, I’m not the only one who’s two–timing here,‘ I thought to myself.

“Nathan, your sister came to see me yesterday,” I said lightly.

Nathan went completely still, like even his breath had caught in his throat.
