“Bullshit. Take your hand off. Grace, he’s just lying, right? You brought him here to makejealous, didn’t you?”
“You really think highly of yourself.” Freddy's voice cut through the tension from behind us.
Antoinstinctively retreated. Samuel and | spun around to see Freddy approaching, a baseball bat in tow.

ground it down.
“You're a disgrace,” Samuel said. “But don’t worry. I'll make her so happy that it'll hurt you to watch.”
“Get him out of here,” Samuel ordered.
Once Antowas gone, Samuel cover, took my hand, and said, “Let’s get out of here. I'll take you out for
shopping.”
