Chapter 8

• With my hand still resting lightly on Robin's arm, I swallow before turning to face Brandon fully. What is he even doing here? I try to form words but I am unable to. It's not like I have anything to be scared of or to feel guilty for but I still find myself taking a step back from Brandon's menacing stare.
• "Come on, wife. Silence is no way to greet your husband. Especially in front of a stranger. I wonder, does he know that you are married?"
• My eyes dart frantically to where Hailey was but I can't find her. The realization of what this situation looks like suddenly hits me. But hey, Brandon is a rational man, isn't he? Surely he'll understand that I couldn't possibly be out here cheating on him less than a week after our wedding.
