Underground tunnels emitted a soft red glow, filling the air with an eerie atmosphere. In an instant, a hand suddenly covered Sophie's mouth and nose. Shocked, Sophie could feel the sleeping drug seeping into her nostrils, identical to the one Odie had used on her back in Devonport!
Quickly holding her breath, Sophie feigned unconsciousness and collapsed.
Before passing out, she pinched her thigh hard, forcing herself to stay awake.
There had to be secrets in this tunnel that weren’t meant to be seen. She was determined to uncover what made this boutique so special.
Sophie felt herself being hoisted onto someone's shoulder, then placed into a tunnel cart and transported underground to another location.
Next, she heard the sound of an elevator being summoned. After three seconds, the elevator came to a halt with a ‘ding.'
Soon after, she heard a familiar voice.
“Quick, put her down gently.”
The voice belonged to Wayne!
Taking over, Wayne scolded, “Who gave you the right to knock Ms. Sophie out?”
“Wayne, I just don’t want her to start scream and shout. If the people above had heard, it would have been the end of me!”
Wayne didn’t blame him but instead asked, “When will she wake up?”
“The dose wasn’t strong. She should be awake in half an hour.”
Hearing this, Wayne responded, “Alright, you can leave now.”
“Yes, Wayne.”

Enjoying the story, to much victimising Sophie, they could at least try to target others. Hope at some point Sophie comes clean and forgives James and explain her view of loving the boy James was. Just so they both learn and move on. Really needs to be some consequences for the instigators instead of being let go. Sandy needs to see Vanessa is using her as a cover, and Sandy needs to wake up to herself, or be held responsible by her father for alienating the people she was supposed to make contact with. Hope the reporter brother is keeping an eye on what Vanessa and Odie are up to, and that he has he’s own justice in store. Hope he becomes like Reese a good partner. Hope James lives and finds he’s HEA. Need to put Nicole in prison , no release and several lifetimes , with all the evidence on the crimes she’s committed just to get her out of the way guilt free. More about what’s up with Gordon....
Excellent novel!...
