“You have got to be kidding me,” she snaps, her shoulders rolling back and hip jutting out.
The fuck?
This is not how women usually greet me. Especially ones who are having car problems.
Maybe she’s just mad she can’t leave.
I take a few steps to get closer, a full smile on my lips with the hope she’ll drop her guard.
There’s no denying it. This woman is gorgeous when you see her up close, even with the fury in her expression.
“You look like you’re having car problems.”
She grins. “And you look like an arrogant ass.”
Flinching at that, I narrow my eyes on her.
“I think you have me confused with someone else. I was just walking through and saw you-“
Her grin widens but it is not a friendly look.
“Actually, no. I remember exactly who you are, but obviously you don’t remember me.”
I still in place.
There’s no way I’ve met her before. What the hell is she talking about?
“You have me confused with someone,” I say again, but she just shakes her head and laughs.
“You have a big mouth, are a ladies’ man from what I’ve seen, and are either oblivious or don’t care about the people around you if you don’t remember me.”
I mean, she’s not wrong.
“So I tell you what: Why don’t you strut your way back to the club and let me handle this myself. I really have no interest in dealing with car problemsandan arrogant jerk all in the same night. The first problem is a pain in the ass, and the second problem - also known asyou- is an annoyance I don’t need. Thanks for offering to help, but as far I’m concerned, you can run along and hit on some other unsuspecting woman. I’m not stupid enough to fall for your shit.”
With that, she walks toward me, but steps around where I’m standing to march back to the club.
“Tell me how you really feel,” I call out to her, laughter on my voice.
Brinley doesn’t bother to look back. She just lifts both her hands to give me the finger as she keeps walking.
I can’t help but like her, my mouth stretching into a grin.
“Have a nice life, asshole! Good luck picking up the next chick!”
My brows crash together as confusion floods me.
Why the hell does she think she knows me?
And if that’s the way she really feels, then this mission is going to be a hell of a lot harder than I thought.
Although, I have to admit, with her attitude problem, this game just became a hell of a lot more interesting.
