Chapter Ten

Rachel managed to make it through the rest of dinner without giving the game away. She kept her hands and feet off Logan, although she would’ve liked nothing more than to whisk him into the study again and away from all the snobbish talk in the ballroom.

Once again, she was reminded how much money corrupted, even at a fundraiser for cancer research. The four other people assigned to sit at their table had been snobbish and boring, bragging about their giant homes, luxury vacations, and shady business practices. She could tell that Michael hadn’t been amused. His frown had grown deeper the longer the dinner went on, until finally, Emily curtailed the conversation into recent tech advancements in the medical field, which kept everyone happy.

She kept her gaze solidly away from Darren, but could feel him watching her. Scrutinizing her. As soon as the dinner ended, she excused herself from the table to go check on the status of the caterers in the kitchen. It wasn’t until she was alone in the hallway and felt a hand on her wrist, did she realize she’d been followed.

“So, you and L-train, huh?” Darren asked, swaying slightly. He’d managed to bring his beer along and clutched it in his other hand.

“I’m not sure what you’re talking about,” she answered, trying to detach him from her arm. He had a surprisingly strong grip. “But I need to check on my people.”

“He always does this.” Darren leaned in closer, his rank breath hot on her face. His eyes lost focus and then he blinked, finding her gaze once again. “I tell you, that guy was born under a lucky star. He could get with any woman he wanted during baseball season. And now, he uses his money to get the chicks.”

“He didn’t use his money to get me.” Rachel pressed her lips together and glared at him. “I’m not for sale.”

She’d had enough of this. It was clear Logan’s friend had drunk too much for one night.

“Oh, he’s sneaky about it, trust me.” Darren smiled and wrapped an arm around her back. She shivered with disgust. “Did he show you his private jet? Pretend he doesn’t like flying? That’s usually his first move.”

She blinked hard, her stomach clenching. No, that couldn’t be true. That was just a coincidence. Logan truly had been nervous on that flight. She’d seen it with her own eyes.

“I take that expression on your face as a yes,” he slurred, raising the beer bottle to his lips. “Didn’t he get you a job in his restaurant? He does that all the time. Hires pretty girls off the street to work in his pizza joints and then gets them in the sack. Boy, does it work like a charm. I wish I would’ve thought of that. I would’ve bought a crummy restaurant too if it kept the girls coming my way.”

Rachel shrugged Darren off and took a step away. Anger twisted her lips into a scowl and blood rushed to her cheeks.
