Chapter 12: She Always Comes to Me

I stood in Camille's doorway with a cat carrier in my hand and Spencer Langdon's coat in my eyes.

"Oh," Camille said. She glanced back and laughed lightly. "Don't look at that. He stopped by an hour ago to apologize. I told him to leave. He forgot his coat."

"He left his coat."

"It's an expensive coat. He'll be back for it."

She said it so smoothly.

The old Roz would have said, Of course.

That Roz had walked out of a penthouse an hour ago.

"I see," I said.

I put the carrier down.

"Roz, what happened? You look awful."

"Jasper and I had a fight."

I had decided it in the half second it took to cross the doorway.

If Camille had been lying to me, I wanted to see how far it went.

I let my lip shake.

"He's been lying to me. About everything. I don't know what to do."

Camille's eyes widened.

"Oh, honey."

She put both arms around me.

Her perfume was heavy and sweet.

"Of course you can stay. As long as you need. I always knew he wasn't what he seemed."

"You did?"

"He bought you, Roz. Everyone says it. Men like that don't marry women like us for love."

I held very still.

"Women like us."

She stroked my hair.
