As soon as the call connected, Greg spoke urgently, “It’s Charles–his heart’s giving out. We need an imbulance now.”

On the island.

Chloe stood before the floor–to–ceiling window, her eyes fixed somewhere in the distance.

Outside, a bare tree stood waiting for spring. A nest rested on one branch where a small bird–probably he inother, judging by her plain feathers–was settled over her eggs. On a nearby branch, a brightly olored male hopped about, chirping a cheerful, twittering tune. Every so often, the female answered oftly from the nest.

They looked cozy. Happy.

Just some birds. Is it really that fascinating?”

The voice came from behind her. Chloe didn’t turn. She already knew who it was.

Vincent’s expression tightened almost imperceptibly. He hadn’t expected her to be so sure of herself, to state the outcome so bluntly,

And the truth was, she was right, She had won,

He had to give her that.

“You sound so confident. Is the man you chose really that devoted to you? Vincent gave a soft laugh. though it didn’t reach his eyes. “Jennifer failing her mission just means her acting was poor and her skills were lacking. It doesn’t prove that man would actually give up everything for you”
