Just then, her phone rang. She snapped out of her daze and looked at the screen. Freddy’s name flashed across the display.

Her fingers tightened around the device. After a long hesitation, she finally answered. “Freddy.”

“Nathalie, my meeting just wrapped up. Where are you? I’ll come pick you up,” his warm, gentle voice came through the speaker.

Nathalie said, “Something came up. I won’t be able to make it. You go ahead with your day.”

Catching the subtle shift in her tone, Freddy asked, “Did something happen? Is there anything I can help with?”

“No.”

Her voice dropped even colder, and she hung up without another word.

She couldn’t believe a man who appeared so kind and gentle on the surface could be responsible for something so vile, yet the evidence was staring her in the face.

She got up and left the hotel.

Nicol dragged the attacker straight to the police station while Nathalie headed back to the hospital.

Pushing open the door to Lance’s room, she found Bagot and Aaron already inside.

Bagot grinned the moment he saw her. “Hey, Nathalie! You’re here.”

“Yeah,” she replied, taking a seat on the sofa.

Lance’s dark eyes locked onto her immediately. He turned to Aaron. “Just handle it the way we

discussed.”

Aaron nodded. “Understood.”

He turned and left the room.

Lance then shifted his sharp gaze to Bagot. “Any news on your sister?”

Bagot shook his head. “Nothing yet.”

“Go back and press her for answers.”

Bagot blinked in confusion. “Wait, Lance, I can’t even get ahold of her. How am I supposed to press

her?”

“That sounds like a you problem, Lance said coldly, his eyes narrowing

Bagot looked completely stumped, but then it clicked. He glanced at Nathalie on the sofa, slapped his thigh, and said, “Right! Good point I’ll go press her right now Be right back

He dashed out of the room in a flash, making sure to shut the door tightly behind him.

Only then did Lance turn his full attention to Nathalie “What happened?”

Startled, she looked at him. “How did you know?”

“You look terrible, and you’re clearly distracted.” Lance glanced at his phone. “You were gone for less than two hours. Did something happen again?”

Nathalie pressed her lips into a thin line.

Lance raised an eyebrow. “So I was right.”

Averting her gaze, Nathalie muttered, “You’re overthinking it.”

The air in the room grew heavy. Seeing that she was dead set on hiding it, his tone cooled. “Keeping secrets from me? Why? Do I know the person who hurt you?”
