“She’s not going to fucking have sex with either one of them.”
He shrugged. “It seems that she’s pretty desperate for a man.”
“No, she’s not.”
“Yeah, but what would you know? It’s not like she’s telling you anything anyway,” he pointed out.
I glared at him for a few seconds then switched off the light and turned the car back on. I turned on the radio and put the volume up loud. I didn’t want to speak to Chet anymore this evening. I was pissed off. I was to get drunk as hell, and I just forget about it all. I had no idea what Sadie’s problem was. But I figured I’d wait for her to come groveling back to me and begging me for forgiveness.
After all, she was the one that was acting like an idiot, not me.
Chapter Seventy-Eight
Sadie
“Hey, guys,” I welcomed Olivia, Lucy, and Arya into my barn. “Thank you so much for coming.”
“You’re welcome. Of course.” Olivia looked at me with a warm smile. “Is everything okay?”
I looked at them nervously. “I’m kind of going out of my mind right now,” I told them, “and I really needed some girlfriends to talk to. It’s just all too much right now.”
“What’s going on?” Arya squeezed my hand. “I got worried when I got your message. Did everything go okay at the meeting?”
“It was fine. I met with Dominic and Tom Olivio. They’re the brothers that want to start the learning ranch, and I think it’s quite possible that we can go into business together, but,” I let out a deep sigh, “Wyatt showed up.”
“Oh, my gosh, Wyatt is everywhere.” Lucy laughed. “What happened?”
“He thought I was there on a double date.”
“With two men?” Olivia raised an eyebrow.
“Exactly. He thought I was desperate enough to go on a double date with two brothers to see which one would want me.” I rolled my eyes. “I mean, come on. Do you know how pathetic that made me feel?”
A smile spread over Arya’s face.
“What? It’s not funny.”
“I know it’s not. And I’m sorry, but I just think that it’s so ridiculous to think that any woman would deliberately go on a date with two brothers to see which one wanted her. Is he crazy?”
“I think all the Hamilton men are,” Lucy put in.
“You got that right,” I agreed. “I was pissed. I told him to get the hell out of there. Well, maybe I didn’t use those exact words, but he got the gist. And the worst thing is—” I paused.
“Uh-oh, what is it?”
“They did hit on me after he left!”
“Oh, shit. So, they did think it was a double date?”
“I don’t think they thought it was a double date because they knew I was there for a business meeting. But I think they wouldn’t mind mixing business with pleasure, if you know what I mean.”
“Oh, boy,” Arya said. “Why do men have to be like this?”
“Because they have dicks and balls.” Lucy shrugged. “Sorry, I didn’t mean to be crude, but you know it’s true.”
“I know. Oh my gosh, I just don’t know what to do. I don’t want to work with them if they’re going to hit on me. But this is an amazing opportunity. I told them about how I wanted to start my own nonprofit, and that we could work in conjunction together. I even told them about you, Arya, that you’d be interested in taking the course. I just think it would be such an amazing thing to give women the opportunity to learn skills that they wouldn’t otherwise have access to. Not all of these jobs have to be done by men. In fact, none of them have to be done by men.” I was getting worked up about this now. “I mean, sure, men have done it for centuries, and we’ve always been the caregivers, but I think women have proved that they’re more than capable of doing it all.” I let out a deep sigh. “Sorry. I didn’t mean to go off.”
“It’s okay,” Olivia said. “You seem like you’re really upset, and I’m sorry about Wyatt. He’s a douche.”
