CHAPTER 18: A Night to Forget the Pain

  Hannah’s POV

  As Aubrey and I sat back down after finishing our first round of drinks, she gave me a sly grin that instantly put me on alert. That look never meant anything good. Before I could ask what she was plotting, she leaned in, her eyes sparkling with mischief.

  "So, I’ve heard someone at your new company who’s quite the catch," she said casually, swirling her drink. “Tall, charming, handsome… sound familiar? And you can tell me more about this ‘someone.’ Aubrey leaned forward, her eyes gleaming with interest. “Is he cute?”

  I frowned, not catching on at first. “Who are you talking about?”

  Aubrey raised an eyebrow, a knowing smirk tugging at her lips. “Christian, of course! Don’t tell me you haven’t noticed?”

  My cheeks warmed at the mention of his name. “Christian? Seriously, Aubrey, stop joking.”
