Chapter 1440

Elysia hung up without another word.

Winona shook her head. "Why are you so mad at Mr. Bradford? He didn't do anything wrong. Poor guy's totally innocent."

Elysia was fuming.

"Innocent? Not even close. He and Keaton are thick as thieves-if Keaton messes up, Bradford's guilty by association!"

She knew Keaton was getting the short end of the stick, but this whole mess started with him!

Alicia was his plus-one-his responsibility, period!

While Elysia and Winona climbed into the ambulance, meanwhile, the two "drama magnets" were on the phone with each other.

Drama Magnet #1: Tarquin.

"I just called Elysia. She didn't say much, but she's furious. What the hell happened?!"

Drama Magnet #2: Keaton.

"Don't even get me started. I just started dating someone new and she-"

Tarquin cut him off, voice icy.

"I don't care how you fix this, but you better sort it. I'll tell you right now: if my wife bans me from hanging out with you over this, we're done."

Keaton: "Aw, come on-"
