“I’ll tell Julie you said that,” she huffs.

I roll my eyes but let my voice soften as I place a hand on her shoulder. Not to steady her, of course. “Sure. Did you actually come over here for something?”

She’s not an idiot – despite what her ex–husband might’ve thought. She sees right through my concern and slaps my hand away, frowning.

“She might be in another orgy.”

“That was my first guess, too,” Lacey sighs, rubbing her temples. “But usually she tells me

Careful there, Liam. She’s not my favourite person right now, but I don’t play when it comes to

her. Break her heart, and I’ll cut you into tiny pieces, stuff you in a duffel bag, and drop you somewhere in the Pacific. fie
