The birthday party went silent.

Bethan and Megan’s conversation played loud and clear for everyone to hear.
Bethan’s voice was asking, “Megan, six years ago when you took that check from Harvey-were you really
robbed?”
Megan answered, “I’d never seen that much cash in my life. No way was I letting someone steal it from me.”
Bethan asked, “Who’s Hudson’s real father?”
Megan answered, “Don’t even get me started on that loser Colin Hayes. If I’d known his family would go broke, I never would’ve bothered sleeping with him.”
Bethan kept pushing, “Megan, Leonard never did anything to you. Why did you kill him?”
“Blame that old bastard Harvey Cavill. He threatened Hugh-said if he stayed with me, he’d give the inheritance 1/9 to some illegitimate kid. Why should that brat get

“So you murdered him?”

“I didn’t kill him myself. I just paid Shawn five hundred grand to remove the warning signs at the ski resort. Let the little shit die in an ‘accident’-problem solved.”
The recording kept playing, but the crowd had already lost it!
Rachel grabbed Jasper and Nola, nervously backing away from the crowd as they huddled together, whispering frantically.
Arthur gasped. “Jesus. I knew she was bad, but a twisted heart like that? That’s terrifying.”
Mason caught Gwen’s eye and they shared a look.
Gwen quietly comforted Fiona.
Across the room, Hugh’s eyes met Bethan’s for a split second before they both looked away.
Megan’s brain just… stopped. She completely froze. 18:18

This couldn’t be happening!

She had zero memory of ever saying any of this crap to that bitch Bethan.
Where the hell did this recording even come from?
When Megan finally snapped out of it, she lunged forward to grab the recorder.
Jacob was quicker, snatching the device and diving into the crowd, cranking up the volume to play it on repeat.
Megan’s eyes darted back and forth between Hugh and Bethan in disbelief.
Then she suddenly pointed at Bethan and charged, “You bitch! You set me up!”
Mason and Arthur both stepped in front of Megan.
Mason said coldly, “Megan, you know exactly what kind of person you are. Everyone’s tired of your act.”
Megan screamed at Mason, “You’re all lying! That bitch is framing me! The recording’s fake!”

Arthur cracked his knuckles and pointed at her menacingly, “I don’t usually hit women, but I’ll make an exception for trash like you. Keep pushing and I’ll knock you into next week.”
Bethan pulled Mason and Arthur aside, walking up to face Megan, “Karma’s coming for you, Megan. After all the sick, vile things you’ve pulled? There’s no escaping it.”
That day after she’d hypnotized Megan, Hugh was supposed to guide her into confessing.
But after several tries, Megan’s subconscious fought back hard-she wouldn’t say a word.
Bethan had to step in and guide the session herself to finally get Megan to spill everything.
Megan lost it completely and was about to attack Bethan when two bodyguards grabbed her.
Seeing this, Megan spun around and threw herself at Hugh.
She pointed at Bethan, totally unhinged, “Hugh, it’s your ex-wife! She’s still bitter and made this fake recording to 8

mess with us. Don’t listen to her!”

Megan’s mom Rachel quickly jumped in, “Mr. Cavill, my daughter’s got a good heart. She wouldn’t hurt a fly. This has to be some mistake.”
Jasper and Nola nodded along like bobbleheads.
Megan pointed at Bethan, “The recording’s fake! She made it up! I never said any of this to her. I swear on my life!”
Hugh said flatly, “Don’t bother swearing. I recorded this myself.”
“What?!” Megan’s world completely shattered.
Megan’s family ducked their heads, hiding behind her.
The crowd turned on Megan instantly:
“I thought this Megan was just some homewrecker, but she’s actually a murderer.”
“Look at that psycho face. That vicious woman.”

“Elsie, is this the future Mrs. Cavill you were bragging
about?”

Bethan stood with Fiona and the others at the back, watching everything unfold.
Gwen looked at her mom worriedly, “Mom, are you okay?”
Fiona sighed, “Don’t worry about me. If I hate anyone, it’s your father for cheating. Leonard was just a kid-what did he ever do wrong?”
Gwen spoke quietly. “Mom, aren’t you mad that Hugh kept this from you? He spent so much money investigating Leonard’s death without telling you.”
Fiona shook her head. “That boy’s already dead. What’s the point of being angry now?”
Fiona patted Gwen’s hand, then walked up to face Megan.
She said, “Megan, if you think the Cavill family would

wildest dreams. The evidence is right here-you can’t deny what you did. The police will handle you now.”
Megan stumbled backward.
She shook her head frantically, barely managing to grab the table to keep from falling.
Meeting Hugh’s ice-cold stare, Megan’s guilt made her head spin.
She looked away desperately, pointing at Bethan and shrieking, “I knew you were up to something, you bitch! If you want Hugh back, just say so! Why are you trying to destroy me?”
Bethan slowly walked up to face Megan.
She glanced at Hugh, then said to Megan, “Megan, you confessed all this to my face. Mr. Cavill happened to be there and recorded everything. So whether you believe I’m setting you up or not, he knows the truth.”
She couldn’t let anyone know she’d helped Hugh hypnotize Megan.

She stepped forward and slapped Megan hard, “You lying slut! I can’t believe you played me too. Give me back my money!”
The slap sent Megan crashing to the floor.
She crawled to Hugh’s feet, sobbing, “Hugh, please believe me! This recording’s fake! I never did any of this!”
Hugh’s face darkened. He kicked his leg, shaking Megan’s hand off. “You won’t believe it until the evidence is staring you in the face.”
Right after Hugh spoke, two bodyguards dragged a man in front of Megan.
When Megan saw Shawn, her face went white as a sheet.
Shawn pointed at Megan and cursed, “You bitch! Tell them to let me go, or I’ll spill everything about you!”
Megan waved her hands frantically, “Hugh, I don’t know this guy! I swear I don’t know him!”
Shawn completely lost it, “Megan, you lying bitch! We had a deal-after I killed that Leonard kid, you’d pay hie19

another five hundred grand once you hooked some rich guy. You never paid me, and now you’re pretending you don’t know me? I’m not letting you get away with this!”
Megan crawled back to Hugh’s feet, trembling, “Hugh, I really don’t know him. Please make him leave.”
Hugh clapped his hands, and another person walked in from outside.
Hugh said coldly to Megan, “Maybe you don’t know Shawn Walker, but I’m sure you won’t pretend you don’t know this person too.”
