Rose in Bloom (Sex and the Season 2) - Page 62

“Your brother is not in love with me.” The words cut at her insides.

“Of course he is. Any fool could see it.”

“I’m afraid you’re mistaken.”

“I don’t think so. He lights up whenever you’re around.”

“I’m around now. Where is he?”

“Well…I don’t know. Perhaps he went on an errand.”

“Without telling you?”

“He could have.”

“I highly doubt that, Tricia.”

“Oh, my lady, please tell me. Do you love Cam?”

“My feelings for Mr. Price are irrelevant. We are from two different worlds.”

“Yes, I’m coming back in three days to see Kat.”

“Perfect,” Tricia said, her eyes sparkling with mischief. “Just perfect.”

She looked so happy. Rose didn’t have the heart to tell her not to bother. Tricia would know the truth soon enough.
