ADIL

I’m bored

ADIL

New bet. Hundred quid says Donovan gets caught in another scandal by summer’s end

What do you mean ANOTHER scandal?

I feel targeted

ADIL

Remember what happened with your Lambo?

That wasn’t a scandal. That was a tragedy

ADIL

A tragic scandal.

I think they finally rebuilt that wall you destroyed

It was overdue for a renovation anyway. I did them a favor

ADIL

Ask the National Historic Society if they agree

NOAH

Stop texting me

NOAH

I went to the gym and came back to 86 new messages

ADIL

This is a group chat. Texting is literally the point

Noah Wilson left the conversation.

Adil Chakir added Noah Wilson to the conversation.

NOAH

I’m blocking you

ADIL

That’s very un-Nice Single Dad of you. You have an image to protect, you know

ADIL

Noah

ADIL

Hello?

ADIL

You didn’t actually block me, did you?

ADIL

Wilson!!

I shook my head. If Noah had his way, he’d show up to work, do his job, then immediately go home to his daughter, but Adil had somehow dragged him into our Blackcastle Baddies group chat (yes, that was really the name, and no, Adil wouldn’t change it).

We had another chat with the entire team, but I rarely posted there. The other guys were nice enough on their own, but Adil and Noah were the only ones who didn’t treat me differently when Vincent was around.

An incoming call disrupted Adil’s spiral over being blocked.

“Hey, boss.” I tucked my phone between my ear and shoulder as I flipped through the post. Every week, I received bags of items to sign for my official fan club. Some players ignored their fan mail altogether, but I tried to sign when I had the time. It didn’t require much effort, and it made people happy. “I haven’t crashed any cars yet, but I promise I’m working on it.”

“You do that, and I will personally fly to London to slap some sense into you,” Sloane said without a trace of humor.

Are sens
