“Maybe it’s me then,” he quips, giving his pit a quick sniff. “Nope, I’m good too.” He chuckles, reclining his seat. “He seems a little obsessed with Tommy right now. What are your thoughts on how everything is playing out with Carly and Tommy?”
“I think they were both in on things, but Carly realized too late that she was in over her head,” I speculate, giving him my impression of the situation. “Why else would she flee to Belize to shut down the bank account?”
“You think she realized that Tommy was framing her?” he asks, nodding his head as if he is starting to believe it. “Several times, you guys have alluded to the fact that he manipulates and uses people.”
“Trey was talking about that fact earlier,” I tell him. “He thinks that he set up the account in Belize for her and granted himself access to it.”
Anthony gives me a puzzled look, not immediately connecting the dots. “I certainly wouldn’t let anyone else set up my bank account.”
“Trey thinks Tommy offered to set up an offshore account for her to keep Victor from finding out that he was paying her to help sell his company,” I explain. “She probably liked the idea of concealing the twenty-five million from him, but then freaked out when she realized that Tommy was using her account to pay for the crime spree.”
“So you guys think she is innocent in all of this?” he asks, shaking his head and sounding doubtful.
“I don’t think she’s totally innocent, but I can’t believe that she was totally responsible either.” I pause for a moment to reflect upon everything that has gone on. “Trey thinks that maybe Tommy and Carly were having an affair and that’s why Victor didn’t trust her anymore.”
“He must be a busy guy, huh?” He rubs his chin between his thumb and index finger. “I don’t think I could use women like that. I’d have to ditch my conscience.”
“I’m totally convinced that he has no conscience whatsoever,” I reply, expressing my strongly held opinion. “I wouldn’t trust him any further than I could throw him.” I cringe at the thought of him simultaneously sleeping with Liv, Vanessa and Carly. Those are just the three that we know about, there could easily be more. A whiff of Trey’s cologne abruptly interrupts my thoughts.
“So far, Tommy hasn’t gone too far,” he relays. “In fact, he hasn’t left the office yet. Hopefully he is packing up his stuff.”
“So you have been busy tracking him. I thought maybe you were sick of us.” I turn and narrow my eyes.
“No, I’ll never grow tired of you.” He slips into the seat next to me and gives me a kiss. “I could use a little space between us and our chaperone though,” he adds, glancing over at Anthony.
“Yeah, well, I’m getting a little tired of being around two teenagers who keep fawning over each other too, if you want to know the truth.” He turns his head giving us a glare that could cut glass. “It’s like neither of you have ever gotten laid before.” He scoffs, chuckling at his own wit.
“Actually, I’ve just never wanted to be with anyone this much,” Trey whispers, bringing on another eye roll from Anthony.
“Me either,” I reply feeling a fullness in my heart that has been missing my entire life. I can’t wait for this whole thing to be over. To have our lives back and to be able to go and do whatever we want. It’s almost like we have been held hostage. Every move we make has to be planned out, approved by Anthony and even then I still feel paranoid.
I turn and glance at Anthony who appears to be distracting himself with a newspaper. “This is a good exercise in self-control,” I tell Trey, sliding my hand along the inside of his thigh. “I like a man who has control over his wants and desires.”
“I’ll show you self-control,” he says reclining his seat all the way back and closing his eyes. “We’ll be on the ground in about thirty minutes.”
“You can just turn it on and off like a light switch, huh?” I ask, sliding my hand over his protruding bulge. “Hmm, this thing appears to still be on.” I lightly stroke it back and forth with my fingertips.
“All right, you two,” Anthony groans. “I was trying to ignore you but…”
“Talk to her,” Trey replies, without even cracking an eyelid. “She’s the one being a tease over here.”
I look back at him and he is now grinning from ear to ear. “To think, I had a sexy little surprise planned for you.”
