Chapter 234: I've Got Nothing

Lacy Knighton was not in a good mood. She heard from her father that Aaron apparently called his absentee fiancée multiple times a day. Alistair Hale had mentioned it offhandedly as they met up to discuss business in his office.

What was so special about that tramp? She wasn't any prettier than Lacy! She was sorely tempted to go down to Boston and rip the chit's stupidly red hair out.

Unfortunately, her usual source of information had been sulky lately. Max wouldn't do her any favors. After the humiliation she endured at her birthday party, he honestly thought she would marry him just so she wouldn't end up old and alone. Ha!

She had no shortage of marriage proposals. She certainly didn't need one from the man she saw as a brother.

Even that playboy Graydon wouldn't stop flirting with her. That was probably in his nature though. He was still trying to help her get close to Aaron.
