Rebecca gripped her phone and slipped into a corner seat at the nearest coffee shop. She sat for a while, trying to steady her nerves, then unlocked her phone again. That text message was just too weird. The number was a blank, and no matter how many times she replied, there was never any answer.
Why would someone go out of their way to warn her? And why would they stay anonymous? Was it someone who couldn’t risk being found out? Maybe even someone inside Skyline Capital? Rebecca racked her brain. But that didn’t make sense. She didn’t know anyone over there, not even through her network. If she had any connections, she wouldn’t have been struggling to get a meeting with Bryce.
It made no sense at all. Still, if the warning was real, then Sunforge Tech had just avoided a disaster. That thought made her feel a little less desperate about working with Skyline Capital. She took a sip of her coffee, watching people drift by outside the window. Any one of them could be the mysterious tipster.
Across town, Cindy was fuming as she drove home after being played by Bryce. That night, she vented everything to Stephen. She didn’t leave out a single detail, from how Alan and Sonja had gone out of their way to make things hard for Rebecca, to how clueless Bryce had been through all of it.
Stephen’s gaze grew sharp. “I get it. Leave this to me for now. You don’t have to worry.”
Cindy’s eyes brightened. “So, did you find a lawyer?”
“I’m already talking to one. They are swamped with cases and out of town, but I’ll meet with them as soon as they are back.”
“That’s perfect! We’re not just going to make Alan pay, we’ll show everyone what kind of guy Bryce really is. Honestly, if we can drag Campbell Group through the mud and bring them down, that’d be even better.”
Stephen let out a laugh. “That won’t be easy. By the way, how’s that private investigator you hired overseas? Any news?”
