“THAT WAS AWESOME!” Greg said. “Rachelle’s going down. It’s just a matter of time.”

Tyson couldn’t help but grimace. He and his agent had just come out of his attorney’s office, which was located above one of the expensive boutiques in the shopping district of Beverly Hills. Harry Andrews had talked pretty tough, and Greg was following suit. Greg wanted to keep going over their strategy, to recap the session and reassure each other of ultimate victory. But Tyson had had a hard time sitting through the meeting in the first place. He could take no pleasure in fighting a woman, even on paper. Thanks to Grandpa Garnier, treating the fairer sex differently, as something to shield and protect, was too ingrained in him.

Which is what had gotten him into trouble in the first place, he supposed. Anyway, in this case, fighting had become a necessary evil. He couldn’t allow Rachelle to destroy his life, and she was attempting to do just that.

“We’ll do what we have to,” he muttered, shoving a pair of sunglasses on his face with the hope that, along with the goatee he’d grown eight days ago, he wouldn’t be recognized.

“We’ll sue her for defamation of character, that’s what we’ll do. You heard Andrews. If she’s not careful, she’ll lose whatever she’s got left of that million, even what she bought with it. Then she’ll be sorry, huh? You’ll have the money and the baby.”

“No one wins in this kind of thing.”

Greg frowned. “I thought Andrews was encouraging, didn’t you? That meeting was absolutely cathartic.”

“Cathartic?”

“Emotionally cleansing.”

“I know what it means.” Tyson palmed the keys to his black Mercedes. “Let’s go,” he said, but then he caught sight of something that promised to be a much more positive diversion than dealing with his hyped-up agent and his past mistakes.

“Where are you going?” Greg demanded when Tyson started for one of the fancy shops facing the street.

“I want to look at something.” He pulled his ball cap a little lower as he entered the store.

Reluctantly following at his elbow, Greg rose up on his toes to see over racks that were nearly as tall as he was. “Are you crazy?” he whispered. “If someone happens to snap a picture of you in here, it’ll be plastered all over the papers, right next to Rachelle’s allegations.”

“This won’t take long.”

“But everyone has a camera on their cell phone these days. Especially in Beverly Hills.”

“I said I’ll only be a minute. If I don’t do this she won’t have anything to wear. She’s not the type to buy it for herself.”

“She? Are you seeing someone I don’t know about?”

Greg nearly stepped on the back of Tyson’s heel as Tyson turned to respond. “No. I’m setting a friend up with Quentin Worrack.”

“And you’re buying this friend lingerie?”

“Just a bra and a pair of pretty panties.” He started thumbing through the racks. “There’s nothing kinky about that.”

“You don’t think sexy lingerie is an odd gift, Ty?”

“No, and you wouldn’t, either, if you could see where this woman lives.
