CHAPTER 14
LAURA
Flora picked up immediately. Like she’d been waiting for my call.
“Hi Laura!”
“Hey. Want to come over?”
“Yeah. I need someone to talk to and you’re the only person in this family who doesn’t completely hate me.”
Flora laughed. “I’ll be there in thirty minutes.”
She arrived in earlier than I expected
I heard the doorbell and opened it before she could ring twice. We hugged.
“Come in,” I said.
We sat in the living room. I poured wine. For us. From Kyle’s collection that I wasn’t supposed to touch but f**k it.
Flora took her glass. Looked around.
“Where’s Kyle?” she asked “Honestly? I have no idea.”
“Does he know I’m coming?”
“No
Flora smiled. Took a sip. “So. What’s going on?”
I took a long drink. Liquid courage.
“Is Kyle always this cold and arrogant?”
