She swiped right past it.

A while later, Chloe Lawrence messaged her with the gossip: [Guess what Lily just posted on her feed.]

Alaina: [No idea.]

Chloe sent a screenshot. It was a photo from behind of two people leaning against a balcony, looking out at the city view. The caption read: Finally standing here with him, heart eyes.

Alaina looked at the screenshot, feeling nothing in particular.

Chloe, on the other hand, sent several exploding emojis: [Didn't Ethan marry someone else ages ago? Could that person really have been Lily all along?]

Alaina had never told Chloe the truth about that.

During their high school years, Chloe was terrified of Lily and didn't dare interact with her publicly, but she had secretly helped Alaina quite a bit behind the scenes.

She understood Chloe's hesitations.

Chloe came from a comfortable background, with both parents working in government jobs.

Over the past few years, as her social anxiety worsened, Chloe took an editing job and stayed cooped up at home.

Chloe had once said that chatting with her like this every day kept her from feeling completely disconnected from the world.

After thinking it over, Alaina decided to tell her: [Actually, there's something I've hidden from you for a long time. I didn't mean to, it's just that things were incredibly complicated.]

[Back then, you asked why I canceled my study abroad plans and suddenly got married. I said it was family pressure. That wasn't the truth. The mystery woman Ethan married... was actually me.]

Chloe fired back a string of exclamation points and an outrage emoji: [Then what the hell is Ethan doing in the States with Lily right now? Aren't you going to do something?]

[It's fine,] she replied calmly. [We're already divorced.]

...

Meanwhile, in a guest bedroom at The Summers Estate.

Rosemary looked at the thermal imaging feed, her expression completely calm.

The maid beside her, however, was much more anxious. "It looks like they were kissing! Why did he leave again?"
