Caleb stared at his phone confused. What did Shelby mean by "He lied". What did his idiotic brother do now? I will find out soon enough but she needs to expand on this!
For now Caleb just decided to go meet Clay and have a little fun at his expense, because any guy who angered a trained FBI sharpshooter or sniper needed to be made fun of.
Back in Maxine's townhouse Shelby still was at a loss trying to convince the brown haired woman that she had nothing at all to do with her stupid fiances decision or at least that she hadn't given him any indication that she was interested.
"How can I prove to you that I have nothing to do with this? I am not with him, I swear!" Shelby tried one more time but felt she was going to regret that question as soon as it had left her mouth.
"There is only one thing that could possibly convince me: Tell me you are with someone else!" I knew it!
Shelby's head was spinning but then she remembered and prayed to god that he would know what to say and what to leave out.
She took out her phone and dialed a number she had dialed recently in a pinch.
"Hey sweetie" she said when the line picked up and when she practically heard the question marks Shelby smiled to hide the laughter that was forming inside her.
"I am here with our good friend Maxine and she has kind of not believed me alone when I told her that I was unavailable. Could you tell her how we decided to try again, after that one night?"
"You want me to what?" came a spluttered comeback.
"Yes, exactly but no need to tell her how I threw myself at you okay?" after a couple of seconds she got a reply back, "Okay?!"
He still sounded unsure but by now he could take a pretty good guess what had happened over there and which lie the blonde beauty was so pissed about.
This is going to be so much fun!
"Pass her along or put it on speaker phone, I just need to get inside and sit down then I can get into this story."
"I'll put you on speaker. Where are you anyway?" Shelby asked and put the phone on speaker at the same time.
"I am walking into my brothers place but I'll leave the killing to the sniper, okay?" Caleb said and Shelby could practically see the teasing smile playing on his face. At the same time Maxine just stared at the phone incredulously. "You're dating Caleb, again?" she whispers shocked.
"Yes, Max. We are trying again. We actually hooked up after your engagement party and since then have tried to slowly build something new. We were trying to do this in secret but I am actually confused that you hadn't heard yet. Clay knows."
