I’m the goddamn shark.
Courtney’s hot ass and cute wink might have distracted me, but bumping into Dereck just snapped me out of it.
I shouldn’t be thinking about her, my client, the way I have been.From this moment on, I’m refocusing my priorities which are:
- Destroying Adam Blackmore’s strategy.
- Securing fifty percent of the assets forCourtneymy client.
- Maintaining my position as The Shark.
- Thenwatching her hot ass leave my office.
Goddamn it.
CHAPTER TEN
COURTNEY
––––––––
It was hard to makeloyal friends while being married to Adam.I came to New York on my own and was only here a short time before I met him.
Meeting Kylie on the photoshoot was lucky, as once I was engaged to Adam, my social life was controlled by him.
She’s the only person in my world who knows my rags-to-riches story and has her own.Over the years she modeled for many luxury brands and made a big name for herself.Kylie moved from Michigan to the Big Apple.Her family had told her she was taking too big of a gamble and should be focusing on a more sensible career.
She showed them.
Adam hates her.
While married, I had to be discreet when meeting up with her the majority of the time, or he’d rant and rave.
“She’s trash, Courtney.Can’t you make friends with any of the decent women in our social circle?”
“They’re your friends,” I cried one night when tired.
