Chapter 50 : The Truth About Revenge

Scott’s POV

"What are you talking about?" I asked.

"Oh, nothing,” Rory insisted.

"Come on, tell me. If I find out you're hiding something from me, I'll just get angrier."

Rory tried to stop Zoe from speaking, but it was clear Zoe had something she wanted to tell me.

“Oh, speaking of Needy, I heard something. After thinking it over, I decided I should tell you.” Zoe scoffed.

My ears perked up. I felt a strange knot tighten in my chest. Zoe must have made some non-verbal response causing Rory to let out an exasperated breath.

“Just tell me,” I said.

“I heard that Needy and Justin hooked up the other night. I just don’t think that could be good,” Zoe answered.

My face turned red and I felt a bolt of rage surge through me. I didn’t hear what Rory’s response was. She was with Zoe for now and I would check in with her again soon.

I stood up, grabbed my phone and keys, and headed out to the parking lot. I didn’t think about saying goodbye or closing any of my work.
