Chapter 50

Vanessa

Flustered at the sight of him, I raise my eyebrows a little.

Unlike me, he just has a blank stare as he steps out of the elevator.

“I see you’re finally awake,” he says. “I thought you’d never get out of bed.” I sense mockery in his tone.

“Why would I be in bed all day?” I cross my arms, trying to act like I know absolutely nothing about last night. But I still feel a little awkward.

“Considering the kind of evening you had last night and how drunk you were, it’s possible.”

“I don’t remember much.” I try to sound believable.

“That makes two of us.” He shoves his hands in his pockets.

“Really?”

He nods. “I can’t seem to remember a lot of what happened.”

That’s all he needs to say for me to feel less awkward around him. The fact that he doesn’t remember makes everything much easier for me, so I finally let it go.

Suddenly, he towers over me and I find myself against the wall, looking up into his eyes with an expression I can’t quite read.

“Don’t ever drink like that again,” he warns me. “From what I can remember, you were a fucking mess.

“I know.” I smirk, still trying to read the expression in his eyes. “I was told I threw up several times.”

“You did. Next time, you better listen to me.”
