Audrey's pov
"I almost told him" payal said as soon as she plopped down on the two seater couch in my office.
I sighed and threw her a bottle of water which she missed resulting in payal yelping out and flipping me the middle finger.
She's quite a fox.
"Are you doubting Mrs.cupid?" I faked sadness and looked down in the most dramatic way one could ever think of.
Payal playfully rolled eyes before sirting up right to face me.
"I just...I don't know, I think we had a moment last night and I just felt like letting it all out but then that airhead Brandon just came out of nowhere with his stupid fiance." Payal said and harshly rolled her eyes.
OK, she doesn't like Brandon that much. I wonder what he did to her.
When did Brandon get engaged!?
I mean it makes sense that his engagement isn't a hot topic right now, he's the type of celebrity who loves his privacy, like people know him to be Andre and other big artists manager/producer but that's all.The only thing that comes up when you ugoogke his name is his friendship with Andre, his birth date and some events he had been at. He's even rumored to be the sole heir to a very successful brand in the media industry but he has not denied nor accepted the rumor. Yeah, Brandon is very private.
"Woah, Brandon got engaged!? As in Andre's bachelor bestfriend that has a thing for ruining friendships?" I asked and my tone couldn't help but show a tint of bitterness.
I disliked Brandon for being the reason my friendship with Isha and Jessica broke. If only he had not gone after friends, we would've probably still been friends....heck even bestfriends.
"Girl, you hate Brandon." Payal said as her curiosity drove her to walk to my desk and sit at one of the white chairs which were facing me and were separated by my big glass table.
"No, hate is a very strong word. I just dislike him, he broke my friendship with two very special ladies in my life" I shrugged then released a sigh as I reminisced on the memories I made with the girls.
"Yap, that does sound like him. You know, he hit on me alot when I first became with Andre...he's so annoying at times" payal scoffed.
"Is that why you don't really like him? Because of his player ways?" I asked curiously.
"No. He hurt someone close to me, he uhmm, he broke my sister's heart and you know, she has been through so much and I know she loved Brandon because she would tell me alot about him through our video calls when I was in Mumbai." Payal said.
Payal moved to Los Angeles from Mumbai permanently because she was the only Chopra member remaining in india. Her parents moved to England along with her sister and she stayed behind with her grandmother who didn't want to leave India, she lived with her grandmother in Kolkata for about three years before she passed on and Payal then moved to Mumbai to pursue her acting and modeling career which wasn't difficult to pursue as her mother was quite a well known film producer before she moved to England.
Her sister is estranged from what I know, she moved to america with her husband right after marriage and a year before her family moved to England, her sister got divorced and nobody had spoken to her since except for payal.
She told me about her when we first met for drinks and she told me about her crush on Andre.
"Oh man, that's bad. How is your sister doing by the way?" I asked.
Payal sighed then fiddled with her gold rings, "Well, she's thinking of moving back to India. And I honestly support her. America has been a curse for her."
