Chapter 100 Revelation

“No,” he said, but there was something in his voice that made her wonder if he was lying. “No problem. We’ll make her suffer. That’s what we’ve always wanted.”

But later, after he’d dropped her off at his penthouse and kissed her goodnight and made sure she had everything she needed, Xan sat in his car in the underground parking garage and pulled out his phone again.

The message from Andrew Webb was short and to the point: “Found something interesting in the old police reports. Call me when you’re alone.”

Xan’s thumb hovered over the call button. This was it. The moment where he’d find out if the last three years of his life had been built on truth or lies. If Sarah was the victim she claimed to be, or if there was more to the story.

Did he even want to know? Wouldn’t it be easier to just keep believing what he’d always believed? To keep playing the avenging angel, the white knight defending his damaged lady love?

But then he thought of Elera on that stage. The confidence. The brilliance. The way she’d looked at Vex ike he was her whole world.

That should have been me, the traitorous voice in his head whispered again. And this time, Xan didn’t push it away.

He pressed the call.

Andrew answered on the first ring. “Valdris. Are you sitting down?”

Just tell me.”

The official story is that Sarah Lyros got drunk at a party, drove her parents‘ car, and crashed it. Both parents died instantly. Sarah was found at the scene with a blood alcohol level of 0.15, Case closed, she was ruled responsible, sentenced to psychiatric care due to her age and mental state.”

‘I know all that,” Xan said impatiently. “What’s the interesting part?”

“Who was it?”
