“Does she?” I fume.
“Yes.” The girl looks around to see if her colleagues can hear us gossiping. “You don’t want to get on the wrong side of her, that’s for sure,” she whispers.
“And why is that?”
“She knows everybody.”
I glare at Tiffany Edwards’ perfect little behind as it disappears, and my blood begins to boil.
“Tell me… where do I sign up to volunteer I ask.
“Really?” The girl winces. She leans forward so she can say something the others won’t hear. “They can be brutal in there.”
I smile sweetly. “Nothing I can’t handle.”
I drive down the road when my email pings on my phone. I glance over at it.
From: Julian.
To: Bree.
I narrow my eyes and pull over to park the car. I glance up and see a coffee shop. Before I open the email, I decide to make my way inside. I order a coffee and take a seat, eventually opening the email.
