A Bet That Changed My Life
“So this is the kind of woman she is? If I were a man, I wouldn’t want her either.”
The room erupted into laughter again.
Then, Finn set his glass down on the table and asked casually, “Want to make a bet?”
“Another one? Fine. If we win, you break up with Sophie.”
Finn’s voice turned cold instantly. “Who said you could use Soph as a bet?”
On the other end of the phone, I listened as he effortlessly reshaped the wager. The bet became whether I would run off with him at my wedding.
Sophie could not be used as a bargaining chip, but I could. He had used me as a setup, gambled on a hundred times already.
