Chapter 24

Grayson was done preparing dinner and it puzzled him when Venice still did not come downstairs. Usually, she would be in the kitchen with him, watching him cook and prepare dinner. Just when he was about to head to her room, he received a message from Noah, his friend and the private investigator he hired to look into Hestia.

"I don't know if you already saw it, but you should take a look at this."

Along with the message, there was a link attached. Grayson clicked on it and it immediately led him to the anonymous that was still being feasted upon by the public. Reading through it, Venice was the very first person who crossed his mind. It probably had reached his fiance so he rushed to her room and, indeed, he saw her all wrapped in her thick blanket.

Her small sniffles reached her ears.

"I... I did not do it," she mumbled. "Why are you blaming me?"

She repeated those words like she was chanting a spell. Grayson sat on the edge of the bed.
