He never thought Rebecca would think that way, let alone realize that those offhand things he’d said just to make things difficult for her would stick with her for life.

After heading back to his own place, Jeffrey ended up hanging out on the balcony. He heard Jessica arrive and open the door, catching some muffled sounds from inside, but whatever they said in the bedroom didn’t reach him on the balcony.

He kept fiddling with his phone, wanting to message Rebecca, but stopped himself, realizing she’d probably just ignore him.

Jeffrey’s reply was short and to the point. [To coax someone.]

Stephen raised an eyebrow, quickly catching on to what Jeffrey meant.
