Chapter 10
The day was miserable, rainy and wet. But Kenya didn’t even notice. By the time she got into her car her breathing was erratic, her heart was pounding and her nerves were on edge. Asia was so wrong, she was a good actress, ’cause she had no idea how she kept her calm when Trey’s sister walked in and nearly caught her. They talked casually, but all the time she was panicking inside.
She hadn’t expected Regina to show up. Who would have thought that Trey’s sister would just walk in like that, no warning. She was just thankful it wasn’t Trey. There was no way she could have explained going through his briefcase and taking pictures. She just got lucky.
“Okay, it’s over, calm down, relax,” she told herself while still glancing in the rearview mirror every once in a while. After a few minutes driving, her nerves finally settled down. She continued home in a self-imposed fog centered mostly on Trey.
“You did it,” she whispered, then squealed, “I did it.” The elation she felt inside spread wide across her face. She did it.
After a night of mindless bliss, she’d been shocked back to reality. How could she be so stupid? How could she even think about trusting him? She actually had second thoughts about getting back at him. But not anymore, all bets were off. Trey Evans deserved everything he got, and she intended to give it to him.
She glanced up in the rearview mirror again. This time she caught a glimpse of her reflection. Her smile faded.
So why was she still so conflicted? On one hand there was what she’d seen in the folder and on the other hand there was her time with Trey. But the reality of what Trey had done was right there in black and white. She didn’t read all of it, but she did note several passages concerning her father’s company. It implied that TE Acquisitions & Associates intended to implement plans to shut down Whitaker Real Estate Investment Company permanently. It was dated six months ago.
Trey had swindled her father just as he’d told her. But six months ago, how was that possible? Yet all her doubts had been silenced. The proof had been sitting right there beside the coffee table the whole time. Seeing it took her breath away. She looked down at her purse. Her camera cell phone was in there. How could he? How could anyone be so malicious as to steal when they already had so much? But it was okay now. One night was all it took and she’d gotten what she needed.
Of course, last night wasn’t what she expected when she went over there, at least not all of it. She was going to make him want her, not the other way around. Her plan was simple when she arrived—seduce him, then drag him along and keep him wanting. She needed him to trust her. After all, there was no way she was going to actually sleep with the man who ruined her father.
