Chapter 82 Harper As soon as Tiffany mentioned my sister's phone , I hoped that when I turned around , I'd see her dangling it and I'd be able to snatch it from her . But when I finally turned to face her , she had both hands on her hips . I was a little disappointed , but I still intended to go back to her . I returned to her with long and hard strides that made my heels click loudly against the marble floor , my heart pounding hard in my ears . " Where the hell is it ? " I asked , looking all around her body like she had it hidden somewhere .
She mockingly clicked her tongue while shaking her head at me . " Damn , talk about desperation . You're probably thinking that I've kept it somewhere . That's where you're wrong . I'm not that considerate . I smashed it and dumped it in the ocean . " " What ? " My loud voice echoed through the hallway . " Damn , take it easy or you'll disturb the little one growing inside of me . " I just wanted to yank her hair or something and the fact that I couldn't do it made me grit my teeth . " How could you do that ? " She gasped dramatically . " How could I not do that ?
" She sighed with satisfaction , crossing her arms again as she circled around me . " I enjoyed every second of smashing that damn phone . Wanna know a fun fact ? Before I did that , I went through every app on it and now , I know everything about Anna , like whether or not she's employed , her pathetic love life , actual home address and if she has any social life ." The way she said it all gave me no answers to any of the questions I'd had all along . It could've been one or the other . " I know you're dying of curiosity ," she said when she stopped circling around me and stared me down .
" I'll tell you everything . You only need to get on your knees and beg me . " I longed for my sister more than anything , but not even that would make me get on my knees in front of Tiffany . I swallowed the lump in my throat , my lips curving into a confident smile . " You'd really love it if I did that , but it's not happening " " Aww come on . " She pouted . " You know you want to ." " Here's the thing , I don't need to hear anything from you . I only need to say the word and Maddox will set up a team to find out everything you know ." She nodded , throwing her hands up in defeat .
" Well , that's your loss . On second thought , this is great . Until Maddox steps in , you'll die inside every time you see me , knowing that I know everything about your sister while you know nothing ." 9:00 Wed , Oct 1 Chapter 82 A 79 55 vouchers She laughed with so much satisfaction in my face and kept going even as she moved backwards to get to the bathroom door . Even though she was already inside , I could still hear her annoying laughter . Then , she hummed , like she was at peace while I wasn't .

Closing my eyes , I took a deep breath , telling myself it was all going to be okay , even when I couldn't slap her . And with that , I opened my eyes and faced the other direction , wanting to leave that hallway before she would make her way out of the bathroom . A few seconds after I turned at the corner , I gasped with wide eyes when someone suddenly pulled me from behind and into a room . I didn't even have time to process who had done that to me , but I was panicking , trying to fight my way out of their hold .
It was only when I looked in front of me and realized it was Grayson that I held my breath while he pinned me against the wall . " It's me , " he said quietly . My heart should've stopped racing upon realizing that I wasn't in danger and it was just Grasyon , but that was what made it race even faster . Not only was I trapped against the wall with his face so close to mine , his hands rested right around my waist and even when I was calm , he didn't let go . " You scared me . " I managed to say , glancing at the bedroom we were in .
" I just really needed to talk to you alone and thought this was my chance ." His hand placement on my waist sent a shiver down my spine and I arched my back a little , wanting to melt into the feeling . " You've not been returning my calls or replying to my texts . Why ? " he asked in a troubled tone , his face so close to mine that I could feel the warmth in his breath . His eyes scanned mine like he was searching for something and I just wanted to get lost in them .
I should've placed my hands on his chest to push him away , but his hands on my waist felt like they were right where they belonged . Finally mustering the courage , I shot him a glare and said , " Get back . " " Why ? So you can run back to your new fucking boyfriend ? " He sounded so bitter that I was at a loss for words . He must've picked up on my reaction as he quickly looked to the side , dropping his hands from my waist but not taking a single step back . " Before today , you and I haven't spoken since the incident in London . I had no idea Tiffany was up to something like that .
" 9:00 Wed , Oct 1 Chapter 82 155 vouchers I scoffed , watching his side profile . " Like that's going to change anything . What's done , is done " " Had I known , I would've stopped it . I didn't even see her with Anna's phone at any point . On the day she traveled to London , she told me it was for a fashion event and- " " It doesn't matter . " His head shot back towards me . " I'm telling you I had no idea and you're telling me it doesn't matter ? " " Fine , you had no idea . Good for you . But after you found out that she'd achieved her goal , what did you do about it ?
" He pressed his lips together , looking to the side again as he finally took a few steps back . " Exactly , " I said , trying not to raise my voice . " You know what ? With each passing day , I understand you less and less . There were times at the dining table when you didn't give a damn about me as you stood by your wife and mother - in - law while they found ways to belittle me . And then the next thing I knew , you were getting uncomfortable when your mother - in - law brought up my father . What the hell is wrong with you ?
" " Look , over the past few weeks , I've said a lot of things out of anger and I didn't mean them . I want this to work ... you and I and this friendship we've had for years ." I exhaled sharply , his statement pissing me off . I didn't know what he wanted from me anymore . " I never thought I'd see the day when you and Maddox would become official and you know what ? You're not a good fit . You can do better ." " Not this again . I don't need to do better . I'm happy with him . " " Come on Harp .
You know I couldn't stand seeing you with him before and now that you two are together , it makes me feel worse ." My heart skipped a beat and I wished that it meant he was jealous , but it didn't . " You've always known that Maddox is a playboy . Even now , you're nothing special to him , " he said . I furrowed my eyebrows . " That's exactly what Tiffany said . " " I know . " " You know ? Wait , you heard our conversation ? " I chuckled painfully . " And you did nothing despite all the other things she said to me . Well , why am I not surprised ?
" " That's besides the point right now , " he waved his hand dismissively . " Which parts of the main house did he show you again ? " " What ? " He groaned . " Just answer me . " I sighed . " The ground floor and first floor . " 9:00 Wed , Oct 1 Chapter 82 He chuckled with satisfaction . " That's exactly what I thought . You're nothing special . " " What does that mean ? " I asked , offended . " It doesn't matter . That's all I needed to know . " 79 55 vouchers His smirk bothered me so much that I went from being offended to being curious . What was I missing ? 田
