“Who?”

“Hayden. By the way, why haven’t you told him who your real husband is?

He thought you were married to Emmett.”

Debbie knew Hayden had mistaken Emmett for her husband. Yet she wasn’t interested in explaininganything to him, and he likely wouldn’t even believe it.

“I don’t need to explain anything to him. Anyway, it’s not like we’re an item,” Debbie replied firmly.

“Sounds about right. I’m looking forward to the day Portia replaces out you’re Mrs. Hilton. I can see thelook on her face. Aha…ha…” Kasie leaned against the sofa, bursting into wild laughter

Right then, the door of the empty VIP room was pushed open. A group of businessmen walked in as aman said politely, “Emmett, this is the room we reserved.

The group of neatly dressed businessmen were shocked to see a woman lying casually on the sofa.When she spotted them, Kasie hastily stood up from the sofa and tidied her clothes.

Emmett asked curiously, ““Kasie? Why are you here?”

Kasie swung her phone in front of him.

“Too noisy out there, so I wanted a quiet spot to talk on the phone. I’m leaving now,” she explainedbriefly.

Emmett nodded and moved aside to let her out. But the next second, he remembered something andstopped in her tracks. After pulling her out of the room, he said, “Hey, my dad invited you to have ameal at my house.”

Kasie widened her eyes in shock.

“What did you say? A meal with your parents?”

He nodded casually, confirming her words.

“Yeah. I have no choice.

Relax, this is a paid gig. When you have some free time, I can buy you a handbag, cosmetics,whatever you want.”

‘What?’ Kasie felt weird. ALL sorts of thoughts were going through her head right now, none of themgood. He was paying her to go out with him? Wouldn’t that be like a prostitute? If the comparison wasvalid, then did that make her a whore? And what did that do to her image? What if someone found out?And was that all she was to him? A paid escort?

He seemed friendly enough, but his offer of “a paid gig” just set her on edge.

As Debbie was still on the phone, she could hear Emmett’s voice coming from the other end, so shespoke loudly to get Kasie’s attention.

“Hello, Kasie? Kasie? Put Emmett on the phone. I need to talk to him.”

When Emmett took the phone from Kasie’s hand, he noticed that the caller ID was “Tomboy” and thatthey had already been on the phone for

18 minutes. Realizing this, he grinned broadly and said playfully, “Hi,

Mrs. Hilton. Emmett here. Miss me yet?”

Kasie rolled her eyes at him.
