Another cheer sounds from the stands as the buzzer signals the end of the game. Toronto wins four-three.

I have no idea what to say to this man. He is a disgusting pig. He doesn't care about Tyra's career or well-being. He only cares about himself.

"I protect her from all the vultures," Randy continues. "Everyone has a number. Everyone. Even the last woman who supposedly loved Tyra. Hers was one hundred thousand, and I would have paid her double just to shut her up and keep her from going to the press. So tell me, Miss. Avery, what's your number."

"What the fuck is going on here?"

Tyra walks towards us with a thunderous look on her face. Holly and Taylor are behind her with identical expressions of confusion. Everyone else is still inside the box, chattering and laughing away.

"You paid Alexis off?"

"I did you a favour. She was in it for the money, so I gave it to her and made her go away."

Hurt flashes across Tyra's face. I can only imagine how overwhelming the sting of betrayal is right now. In one way, Randy is right. If this Alexis woman took money from him to leave Tyra, she's better off without her. But Randy is still a massive asshole.

I see the slap coming before he does. There is something very satisfying about the sound of a palm smacking the cheek of someone who deserves it. Randy more than deserves it.

"Fuck you, Randy. You're fired."

"You bitch! You can't fire me! I made you!"

A security guard runs over quickly at the first sign of trouble. Holly and I signal him to remove Randy Johnson from the building. He doesn't go quietly.

"You'll pay for this, you stupid bitch," Randy yells at me, struggling with the security guard as if this is my fault and not his own. All the commotion draws everyone else's attention from inside the box as they start filing out to watch the scene unfold. This situation devolved so quickly that I don't even understand how we got here. Randy has completely lost it as he struggles against security, raving like a lunatic.

"You're nothing without me, Tyra. Nothing! Nothing but a fucking cunt hiding in the closet." Whoa! He went there. He used the c-word—a word I reserve for special occasions. This guy is unhinged.

The hallway goes quiet as Randy is taken away in an elevator. All the WAGs stare at the three of us, mouths open, eyes moving back and forth between us. Tyra takes a long, steadying breath.

"Um, who the hell was that?" April asks.

"That was my agent. Well, my ex-agent." Tyra grimaces, glancing up at everyone. "I apologize for ruining your night."

"Don't be silly," Sunny Zingle says, smiling wide. She is literally like a big ball of sunshine. Her brother, Tyler, plays defence. "You're welcome to come to watch games any time."

"Thank you." I think Tyra is going to cry for a second, but somehow she keeps it all together. "I know this is asking a lot, but I would appreciate it if everything Randy said stayed between us."

"Darling, say no more." April laughs, trying to break the tension. "What happens in the WAG box stays in the WAG box. If those walls had eyes and ears, we'd all have been front-page news at one point or another."

Everyone nods in agreement and shuffles away, making their way downstairs to the team. I can hear April talking to some of the ladies about the time she got drunk and flashed her boobs at the ice while screaming Jake's name at the top of her lungs. She's a trip.

Tyra pulls Holly, Taylor, and me aside, walking back into the box, and shuts the door.

"Well, I guess the cat's out of the bag," she tries to joke, shooting a quick but discrete look at Taylor before turning back to Holly and me. "Damage control is your guys' specialty, right? I think I might need your expertise and help sooner rather than later. I know you mainly work with athletes, but could you make an exception for a new client? I'll work on getting a new agent, but I need someone who doesn't have a vested interest in my career to help me make a long overdue announcement.”
