#Chapter 35: Karl’s Idea

I weave through the tables, greeting my customers. A lot of my regulars are here tonight, and I stop at
Emily’s table. She’s here with her friends, Lunas like her. I know most of them from when Karl and I
were married.
Emily looks up at me, and I plaster on a smile. “Hi, dear,” she says, her tone as patronizing as ever.
“Wonderful food tonight.”
She gestures to her empty plate, and I wave over Freddy. He walks to us. “Clear these,” I say. He nods
and takes their plates away.
“He’s yummy,” one of her friends says, watching him stride away.
“He sure is,” Emily agrees.
She looks up at me and I force a smile. “Is there anything I can get for you guys?”
“No, dear. We’re just finishing up our drinks.” She lifts her martini to her lips and takes a sip.

with each other at Alpha events. Now she looks at me like I’m miles beneath her. It makes my anger
flare. Luckily, I’ve gotten good at hiding my feelings, and I don’t think my smile changes when my gaze
lands on her.
“Oh, that should be fun,” I say.
“It’s really too bad you won’t be there,” Emily replies. “We miss having you at all these events.”
I seriously doubt she misses it at all. I don’t bother to tell her she might actually see me there. I’m
