I don't say anything.
She looks at me, really looks at me. "You know something."
"The wedding is off, and that's all you need to know."
"That's all I need to know?" She laughs hysterically. "You're telling me the groom is gone, and I don't get to know why?" She grabs a champagne glass from the dresser and hurls it across the room, it shatters against the wall. “Tell me what happened!” she screams at me.
The door bursts open, her bridesmaids rush in, and then her parents.
"What's happening?" her mother demands.
"They're saying Pierre left," Kitty sobs. "They're saying the wedding is off."
Her father steps forward, big, imposing, red-faced. "This is ridiculous. You can't just cancel a wedding."
"The wedding is off," I repeat firmly.
"Explain yourself," her mother demands.
I look at Kitty, surrounded by her bridesmaids, crying, her mascara running. Part of me feels bad for her. The other part knows what she did.
"Pierre had his reasons," I say carefully.
"What reasons could possibly justify this?" her father shouts.
They keep pushing. Keep demanding answers. Keep insulting my brother. Finally, I've had enough.
"Pierre caught Kitty in the garden earlier tonight," I say clearly. "Screwing someone else."
Complete silence.
Kitty's face drains of color.
"That's a lie." Her mother gasps.
"It's not a lie. Pierre and Harper saw her. With another man."
Her father's face goes red. "This is slander. We could sue you."
"Go ahead," I say calmly. "Pierre has proof. Harper filmed it."
Kitty's head snaps up. "What?"
"The whole thing," I say.
I pull out my phone and open the video Harper sent me. "Do you want to see it?" I turn the phone toward them and press play.
Kitty's voice fills the room, breathy, pleading. "Yes, Daddy. Harder, Daddy."
Her mother turns away, hand over her mouth.
I stop the video. "That's Bill Reeves. The owner of Pierre's team. I can play more if you'd like."
No one speaks.
"You were supposed to get married to a man who loved you," I say quietly. "And instead, you were in the garden with a sixty-year-old married billionaire."
Her mother sinks into a chair. "Kitty. Tell me this isn't true."
