Nate walks into Crimson Lights, he spots Audra abut avoids her. She walks over to asks how he is. Amy says he’s not sleeping.

He’s not comfortable with them talking about him. Audra says she’s cares. That’s news to him.

She asks if there’s any way they can fix this.

As he fixes his drink, she reminds him of how good they were together. She knows she’s the one who broke them but she’s not good at relationships.

Being with him made her want to make a commitment for once. She thought they were building something and now she wants to make amends.

Nate asks for the truth.

Taking a deep breath, she admits she agreed to Victor’s deal and went after Kyle to get what she wants.

She tells him she never would have had sex with Kyle. Even the kiss was unplanned.

Nate wonders if she has feelings for the ex she supposedly despises. She claims she was just upset because of Damian.

Nate points out she made the decision to seduce him weeks prior to that. Audra reminds him she was desperate for work and Victor offered her what she wanted.

She wasn’t happy about the conditions and thought about it before agreeing. Nate doesn’t think she thought about it enough.

He can’t get past her willingness to break Claire’s heart.

Audra says she’s not the horrible person he’s suggesting. If Kyle was willing to go as far as she thinks he was, Claire would be better off without him.

She’s not proud of what she did. It was all stupid but she thought it would work. She’s learned her lesson and will be nothing but honest with him.

There’s no way she would have ever betrayed him.

Moving away from her, Nate says she lied to him for weeks because business meant more to her than their relationship did.

If she can’t see that she betrayed him. There’s something seriously wrong with her.
