Three Minutes Before The Murder
âHey!â Gabe barked after Danâs retreating back. âWhere the fuck are you going?â But the producer was ignoring Gabe, again, which was just typical, and he disappeared out of the kitchen. Gabe heard the back door slam and he felt a stab of rage. Dan had ruined everything, and now when he was confronted, he had the audacity to run away?
âIâll get him,â Emily said as she took off after Dan. Gabe bit back a snide remark, because of all the people in the room, Emily Griel had been the only one to actually be honest with him. He could cut her the tiniest bit of slack, even if she was Dan Sebringâs lapdog. Maybe when Dan was finally fired, sheâd take over his job, but Gabe didnât imagine sheâd be very good at it.
The situation was annoying, but it did give Gabe a chance to turn to the only other man in the kitchen and monopolize his attention. âJohn,â Gabe said, as calmly as he could muster. âYou can see how this is bullshit.â
John Balsinger looked over at Gabe with a frown. âI will not have this conversation without Dan present.â
âReally?â Gabe felt his anger rise up again, and for a brief moment, he even thought about breaking Johnâs geriatric nose. âReally. After all this time, you canât even defend me against false allegations?â
âDan has a fairly compelling case for your removal,â John replied flatly. âAs much as Iâve stood by you the past few years, Gabriel, your erratic behavior has been starting to reflect on the studio. If we let Dan go public with this, then you risk other models coming forward and making the same accusations.â
Gabeâs throat constricted. âAnd your solution is to just let him kick me out to the curb based on whatâs obviously a lie?â
âIt is the simplest option.â John replied. âAnd the most beneficial for your future in this industry.â
Gabe threw his hands up into the air. âUnbelievable.â He snarled. âFucking unbelievable. Iâve been telling you for months that Ry Thompson is a fucking psycho. Months, John. And you have brushed me off. And then Dan pulls this shit out of his assâ¦â
He heard the back door open, but the footsteps that approached the kitchen were too light to be Dan, barely audible over the party. Just Emily, then. That was confirmed when she rounded the corner, looking like sheâd just seen a ghost but holding it together as best she could. Gabe felt no pity for her. Sheâd picked her side. And speaking of her sideâ¦
âWhere the fuck is Dan?â Gabe demanded. Emily didnât answer, so Gabe pressed harder. âWhere the fuck is he, Emily? Where is the son of a bitch?â
âDan is handling another matter,â Emily replied flatly, slipping effortlessly into her business voice. âYou will be dealing with me.â
âBullshit!â Gabe roared as he slammed his fist on the countertop, ignoring the way John winced. âWhat is more important than this? Who fucking died?â
