Chapter 42 Tricked By Hayley

• POV: Nathan
• I stayed a few hours longer at the business dinner. I was too furious to discuss business with anyone else at the party. I ordered a whole bottle of Scotch and I poured myself a glass, trying to gulp down as much alcohol as I could to help me with this pain I was feeling in my heart. To think that I even left my meeting to come be with her. I offered to cancel the rest of the meetings just to take her home and be with her.
• But she turned me down like an idiot and chose to go with that imbecile. As I sat on the barstool, I couldn’t help cursing at the bastard, wishing I had punched that dude and kicked him out of there before he succeeded in taking her home. He looked so proud as he led her out of my sight. I caught his smile as he opened the door for her, pretending to be a gentleman. She would never believe that he was such an idiot. She thinks he is just looking out for her and to her, he is way better than me.
