Despite the noise I focused on my work at the hospital until Marco texted me that Dylan was waiting in the lobby demanding to speak with me. When I walked downstairs Dylan performed a dramatic scene of tears and apologies while insisting that his comments had been jokes influenced by Amber’s personality.
Security guards approached quietly and asked whether I wanted him removed from the building. Dylan panicked and announced loudly that I was his fiancée experiencing a mental breakdown. One guard glanced at me calmly before remarking that I looked stable while Dylan appeared to be the one crying in a hospital lobby.
I asked security to escort him outside, and they did exactly that while Dylan shouted promises to change and attend therapy.
Soon afterward Marco discovered that the mysterious investment banker Caleb Turner was actually his cousin. Caleb agreed to meet Dylan at a rooftop bar, then sent a message explaining that he only dated people who valued others for more than free food before blocking Dylan completely.
