Chapter 0156
“No way — you go —*
“No!” | interject,ughing. “You tell me, or I’ll make Kent fire you —*
“Unfair!” Jerome cries, jumping to his feet. “You can’t leverage your sugar daddy''s —*
“| can do as | please! | —*
We''re both silenced, suddenly, by a hard knock at the door, both of our heads spinning towards it. I’m faster than Jerome,
though, using this to my advantage. “You know that’s Daniel, right?” | say, smirking as | reach for the handle. “Maybe we should
just...let him in? See what he thinks?”
“No, Fay —“ Jerome says, his face worried. But | just grin at him and whip open the door, turning to face Daniel with a wicked
grin.
That falls immediately from my face.
Kent is standing there, his arms folded, ring at me. And then his eyes flicking dangerously to Jerome, standing behind.
“Sir,” says Jerome, putting his hands out where Kent can see them, like he’s being questioned by the police. “I’m sorry sir —|
meant to get her for you, like you asked — but we got distracted —*
“Distracted by what?” Kent says, his voice slow, even. Perilous. | take a step away from Kent, freaked out by the violence on his
face. “What distracted you, Jerome?” Kent asks again, taking a step into the room, his eyes flicking to me once as he prowls
closer to his prey. “What distracted you so much that you came into Fay’s room? Alone? And shut the door? When she’s
undressed?”
“Please,” Jerome begs, quailing a little under the force of Kent''s stare. “I promise — it was nothing — we''re — we''re friends —*
Kent doesn’t acknowledge a word that Jerome says, just continues to stalk closer to him until their faces are inches apart. “Get
the fuck out, Jerome.”
Jerome immediately flinches away, nodding and dashing for the door, clearly scared — perhaps even for his life. He doesn’t even
look at me as he goes. | watch Jerome’s form disappear out my door and down the steps, shocked and freaked out myself. Then
| turn back to Kent, my eyes wide.
“What the hell is going on, Fay?” Kent asks, arms crossed, ring at me.
“Nothing,” | insist, staring at him, shocked. “Seriously, Kent, there’s nothing going on between me and Jerome, there can’t be,
iets
And then | stop realizing...
Realizing that Kent actually doesn’t know. That he wouldn''t be this jealous, this enraged, if he knew that the bedroom that
Jerome is actually secretly visiting is...Daniel’s.
“Kent,” | say, crossing the room to him and putting my hands t on his chest, looking up into his face. “Seriously, you’ve got to
believe me — there’s nothing going on between me and Jerome. He’s my friend — one of my only friends, in this house.” | bite my
lip at him, knowing — well, knowing that that’s worked in the past. Hoping it works again. “Please — just trust me. It was an
innocent visit.”
I can tell by the stony nature of Kent''s face that he doesn’t quite believe me. | frown a little, confused. Why — if we just slept
together hours ago — if he just took my virginity —- why would he think | was sneaking Jerome up into my room for some kind of
tryst?

Then | take a step away, anxious. Is this...is this some kind of trap?

Because Ivan is standing there, smirking up at me.
