Chapter 151: Chapter 151

Charlie walked me out to my car half an hour later. "Sorry about Tina," he said before I climbed in.

"I'm afraid to ask what the problem is."

"You guessed it then. She has a thing for Van."

My laugh was anything but happy. "She has nothing to worry about. He dumped me first thing the morning after. If she hasn't slept with him yet, he's available for a night." I could hear the anger in my words and felt bad that I'd said anything. "I'm sorry, that was uncalled for."

"Don't worry about it. I saw that killer spark in your personality the first time I met you. It'll get you far in this business."

There was no way he saw a spark in me, but he was so sweet to say so. "Thanks, Charlie. I'll see you Thursday."

I drove away and headed to The Slam Tavern for lunch. I planned to leave my car in the Inn's parking lot and as I turned in my cell rang.

Joel and I switched numbers the day before and I smiled when his named popped up on the screen. "Cami here."
