“That car…” Drake stared at the Bentley.

Of course he remembered it. She’d driven one in Manhattan, and Sienna had mocked her for renting expensive cars for photos. He’d agreed with the mockery then.

“That ring you’re wearing–is it from Chaumet that day?” His voice shook. “We hadn’t even broken up and you were already trying on engagement rings?”

“You betrayed our relationship!” His eyes reddened. “How could you?”

Thalia laughed bitterly at the accusation. “Relationship? Weren’t you always seeing Sienna in me?”

Drake stiffened, color draining from his face. “You… you knew?”

“I knew everything,” she said coldly. “That ‘urgent business meeting‘ was you picking up Sienna at the airport. After Celine’s birthday party, you took her to the Four Seasons. You were unfaithful long before we broke up. How dare you talk about betrayal?”

“No, let me explain,” Drake pleaded. “It wasn’t like that…”

Annoyed, she stepped on the gas.

Drake flew back, landing in nearby bushes.
