Stefan agreed. “I need to handle some things too.”
We left the restaurant, and I quickly waved goodbye to Stefan before I drove off. I was thankful for how our conversation had gone, and I couldn’t wait to get back home to talk with Mandy.
I pulled into the Penthouse driveway and tossed my valet the keys. I ignored security trying to speak with me as I hurried to the elevator.
I couldn’t delay anymore. Mandy was my priority.
The elevator door opened, and I was surprised to find that the Penthouse was utterly dark, and all the lights were out.
Just then, a light flashed in my bedroom, and I heard an unexpected voice. “Hey, Roger. Care to explain what this is?”
Shit! What’s she doing here?
Chapter ten
Roger
Ilookedatmysister standing in my bedroom and what she was referring to. I stared at the words written in bold red lipstick on my mirror.
‘FUCK YOU, Roger Day!’
“What are you doing here?” I asked.
She shrugged, “I can’t come and visit my big brother?”
I scoffed. “You’re just here to invade my life. You only want to know how I’m doing because of the scandal with Jessica.”
Bella chuckled. “Seems like you’re about to have another scandal.”
I cleaned the mirror as I glared at her.
“Were you alone when you arrived?”
She smirked. “Was I supposed to come with someone?”
I shrugged as I stared at my phone. I repeatedly tried calling Mandy, but it went straight to her voicemail.
I knew she was the one who’d written those words on my mirror. Why’d she write that? Did something else happen that I wasn’t aware of?
“What I meant to ask you was the Penthouse empty when you arrived?”
She nodded. “Yup, except for the blankets on the terrace, no one would know you had a romantic night.”
“Shut up, Bella,” I snapped.
“I know it’s Mandy. She’s the girl you met in Milan, right,” she smirked.
I ignored her and headed to the terrace to pick up the blankets. I inhaled them slowly, picking up Mandy’s scent.
“Wow, you’re even trying to memorize her scent,” Bella chuckled.
I jumped, startled as I saw her standing behind me. “Go to the family house, Bella. Leave me alone.”
Bella shrugged. “You’re my only brother. Why would I leave you alone?”
I remembered Stefan’s request and agreed to be his wingman. I headed back to my bedroom, hoping she wouldn’t follow. Well, she did and stood in the doorway looking in.
I placed the blankets on the bed and groaned inwardly. It’s been a while since I’ve had a sensitive conversation with Bella.
