Chapter 105 The desired meeting

I looked at him and nodded, even if I thought that was ridiculous. Actually, we were about to sign a contract with them, which was about drinks only, so I didn’t understand why she needed to know about the club that much. But Seth’s words echoed in my head on and on, so I didn’t dare to say a word. Mum, Sloane and Leah played with cards, Seth and dad played with Ava. Even if I was with my family, I felt incredibly alone. Like I was an outsider. My phone woke me up from my daze. It was vibrating in my pocket. I took it out, and my heart warmed up to see who sent me a message. It was like she felt my loneliness.

“What are you doing?”

I smiled. That clearly told me she missed me, too.

“Family time, then I have to go to the club.”

“Will you meet Amber?”

I frowned. How the hell did she know about her?

“She’ll be there, but probably she knows that by now I’m not interested in her.”

“Why not?”

I exhaled in disbelief.

“Because I’m only interested in you.”

“Be careful with her Gideon.”

I frowned again.

“How do you know about her?”

“The right question is what I know about her.”

“Alice, please don’t do this to me.”

I desperately wanted her to answer me, but my phone was quiet. Nearly a half an hour passed when my phone vibrated again.

“Can you meet me now?”

My heart pounded faster, and I felt thrilled.

“Anytime.”

“Meet me at my favourite part of the coast in a half an hour.”

I couldn’t help but smile. Did she seriously think I didn’t know where it was? But in a second I realised I wasn’t alone, and I looked around nervously. I only met Ava’s gaze. I glanced back at my phone.
