“Asshole.”
Suzanne smiled. “Let’s go get the girl.”
“She probably isn’t here.” Nash looked back out the window. His mouth dried as he saw her standing next to Jeff. “That’s her.” He pointed to the two of them.
“Oh, she’s adorable.” Suzanne fanned herself. “Is that her brother? Your boss?”
“Yes.”
“He’s fucking hot.”
“Suzanne?”
“What?”
“Stop it.”
“Whatever.” Suzanne opened the door and jumped out. “Stop being a pussy. Let’s go.”
Nash cursed under his breath as he got out and slammed his truck door shut. Why had he brought his sister with him? At the time, he’d thought it was a good idea, but now he regretted his decision.
As he and Suzanne walked across the road, Nash stopped. From the yard of the open house, he saw Hilary hug Jeff, and then turn to walk toward her car. Shit. Was she leaving because he’d showed up?
“Oh no, you don’t.” Suzanne grabbed his hand and dragged him behind her. “Don’t be a baby. She’s probably jealous that you brought some hot babe with you.”
“You think?” Nash’s heart skipped a beat. God, he hoped that was the case.
“Of course. Men are so stupid sometimes.”
“You’re not wrong about that. Hurry up.”
They neared Hilary as her hand clutched the door handle. Nash hoped that it wasn’t too late. If she was jealous of him being with another woman, surely, he still had a chance. “Hilary?”
Hilary slipped on her dark sunglasses and faced them. “Hi.”
Nash dragged Suzanne behind him.
“Nash, slow down,” Suzanne said.
“Sorry.” He smiled sheepishly.
“There’s not a fucking fire.”
“Don’t be a brat.”
“That’s what I’m here for, remember?”
“Yes, I remember.” Nash bumped his elbow into her arm.
Hilary stood still as they approached. He looked for signs that she missed him. As always, Hilary was cute and sexy all rolled into one.
“Hilary, this is my sister, Suzanne.” Nash smiled at his sister. “Suzanne, this is Hilary, the woman I told you about.”
“Hi, Suzanne, it’s nice to meet you.” Hilary stuck out her hand.
Suzanne clasped her hand. “Thank you, Hilary, for finding such a great opportunity for my brother. Not everyone is willing to help out someone they just met.”
“It was nothing.”
