Chapter 165

Audrey’s POV

I frowned at Dr. Evans as she handed me the phone with Richard Sinclair’s name on the screen. Taking a deep breath, I answered.

“Hello.”

“Audrey!” Richard’s voice oozed fake warmth. “Yesterday was Victoria’s birthday. She took some vacation days to travel abroad, but after hearing about your divorce from Mr. Parker, she was worried about you. She canceled her trip and decided to come to New York to keep you company instead.”

I couldn’t help but laugh coldly. I clearly remembered Victoria’s messages about wanting to pursue Blake. Her sudden trip to New York had nothing to do with comforting me.

“She’s already on her way,” Richard continued. “She’ll arrive in about three hours. I’ll send you her flight details, so make sure you pick her up! Victoria isn’t used to hardship. Book her a luxury hotel – we wouldn’t feel comfortable with anything less!”

“If you’re so concerned, why don’t you come with her?” I asked. “Or better yet, book the hotel yourself?”

I thought about my relationship with Victoria. Though supposedly sisters, we’d only met a few times over the years, barely better than strangers. Why waste what little energy I had left catering to someone who had no blood connection to me whatsoever?
