I nodded.
Oh, and apparently, I didn’t need to worry about dropping Justin as a client.
He had decided to do that, after Ethan, Alec, Garrick, Dominik, and Carter had heard him talking about me in some nasty ways.
I was informed by a video of the altercation when I woke up Saturday morning.
Remember, if Plan A fails, there are still 25 more letters in the alphabet.

Chapter 7
Carter
Harlee really was a magical worker.
My back had eased off, and I finally had better movement in it.
And tonight, we were at Virgin Mary’s, a bar in the next town over, for our monthly sibling meet-up.
It was something our parents had encouraged us to do, because when they were gone, we would only ever have each other.
We went to a different place each month, and then when the year was over, we started back with our rotation.
“Wouldn’t be surprised if that girl doesn’t accidentally trip and land face-first in your lap,” Talia said with a giggle.
I rolled my eyes at her.
Ethan grinned, “I mean, she ain’t bad looking.”
“Then next time, you order our drinks and flirt with her,” I growled.
Ethan shook his head, “Nope, it’s against the pact.”
The pact was something we had all agreed to years ago. If a woman flirted with one of us, that made her off limits for the rest of us.
And then Alec did it again, he winked at the other woman he had been flirting with off and on since we got here tonight.
Vickie’s face was getting redder and redder.
She was about to blow, and I couldn’t blame her.
I caught my sibling’s eye as they all just shook their heads.
Alec was a shameless flirt.
He always has been.
But we all thought he was serious about his current girlfriend.
He had brought her to Sunday dinner at our parents’ house last week.
“Um, who is she?” the woman asked as Vickie stormed away from our table and out of the bar.
Alec looked shocked as he turned to look at us, and asked, affronted, “What the hell did I do now?”
I shook my head at my youngest brother.
