By now Halsey had arrived at the Royale Residences parking lot After receiving Wendy s call she had driven over as quickly as she could
She slipped her phone into her bag about to head inside
Just then aloud honk echoed A sleek Porsche sportscar zoomed by

Gilbert was driving and Sienna satin the passengers eat The two of them looked at Halsey and Gilbert smirked What are you doing here
Before Halsey could respond Sienna wrapped her arm around Gilbert s and said in a sugary tone Gilbert took me out for a drive We ve been having so much fun today
Halsey nearly rolled her eyes Was Sienna trying to showoff their relationship to her
It was almost laughable She and Gilbert had broken up so long ago but it seemed like Sienna still saw her as some kind of
competition.

Seeing Gilbert stare after Halsey Sienna felt a surge of jealousy She knew that eventhough she and Gilbert had been spending time together recently he often seemed distracted like his mind was elsewhere
She said she has a boyfriend now Who do you think it is Is it Dwight
Gilbert s expression darkened He knew Halsey had been hanging out with Dwight lately but Dwight was so arrogant so cool Gilbert wasn t sure if Halsey had actually managed to win him over
Don t talk about Dwight I don t want to hear his name he snarled
Sienna pouted but then she grinned mischievously Alright let s not ruin our fun We re out for a drive so let s not talk about unhappy things
She slowly placed her hand on Gilbert s chest her finger slightly tracing his skin a flirtatious glint in her eyes
Where are we going tonight The hotel maybe
Gilbert had already slept with Sienna They made a striking couple young attractive and full of energy They clicked perfectly in bed and Gilbert knew exactly how to make Sienna feel pleasure like never before
