“What?” Miller asks.
Guy doesn’t answer. He scrolls, and his jaw gets tight. Then he stands and walks a few steps away from everyone.
Penn sits up straighter beside me. “Guy?”
Guy laughs once, but there’s no humor in it. “You’ve got to be kidding me.”
Logan walks toward him. “What happened?”
Guy looks at his phone again. “Nothing.”
“That didn’t look like nothing,” I say.
He glances at me and then turns the phone so I can see the headline.
Baseball Bad Boy Guy Brody Spotted Leaving Bar with Mystery Woman — Has His Type Changed?
My stomach turns before I even read the rest.
Under the headline is a blurry picture of Guy outside a bar with a woman beside him. I continue reading.
Brody’s mystery companion is already drawing attention online, mostly because she doesn’t fit the mold of the women usually seen on his arm. Known for dating slim blondes, the baseball star’s latest outing has fans questioning whether this curvy brunette is something more—or just another name in his long list of one-night distractions.
I scrunch my nose up. “Oh, that’s disgusting.”
Guy’s eyes flick to mine.
“Sorry,” I say, even though I’m not sorry at all. “But it is. That’s horrible.”
Lindsey comes over and reads over my shoulder. Her face hardens. “They wrote that?”
Guy locks his phone and shoves it in his pocket. “They write whatever gets clicks.”
“Who is she?” Bree asks softly.
Guy’s face immediately shuts down, and he shakes his head. “No one.”
Penn’s eyebrows lift. “No one?”
Guy glares at him. “Drop it.”
That only makes me more curious. Guy is always light and flirty. This is the first time I’ve ever seen him affected by something like this. He looks like he wants to put his fist through a wall.
Guy drops into the chair beside me again, still angry.
“You okay?” I ask quietly.
He looks over at me. “I’m fine.”
I give him a look. “I don’t believe you.”
He just glares at me.
I nudge him with my shoulder. “You think you should call the woman and give her a heads up… or maybe apologize.”
He glares at me, and I hold my hands up. “What? I’m just saying. If she means anything to you at all, you might want to check on her.”
He opens his mouth and then closes it, shaking his head. “You going to start giving me unsolicited advice too? You’re spending too much time with my family.”
