I sat at the kitchen table, with papers thrown all over. The envelope Lisa had given me was still on the side, unopened, although I had read it three times.

My skull was going to burst, but I could not stop.

"I have to discover something here," I murmured to myself, afraid. "There has to be something."

The papers were large and consisted of records, notes, and dates that didn't match. I read them again and made attempts to make sense of the scraps.

Sometimes, I would stumble upon a page that appeared crucial, but it didn't offer me with the answers I sought.

"Why is this impossible?" I groaned, slouching back in my chair. The room was silent but from the rustling of papers and my own frustrated breathing.

Rita's statements stuck in my head. ‘Don't quit. You are tougher than this. I could almost imagine her face, harsh and unyielding. She would not allow me to give up, not after all that we had accomplished at this point. But right then, I felt like I was drowning in bewilder

    "What were you thinking, Helen?" Rita yelled as I opened the door. She stood with her arms crossed and her face distorted in rage and fear.I stepped back to make place for her. "Rita, calm down.""Calm down?" she shouted, slamming her purse onto the table. "You invited Dan in? At night? Have you lost your mind?"I answered similarly as well. "I had to! He said he had information."Rita's hands came together in horror. "You actually trusted him? Like that? What if he lied to us? What if he's with Rose?""I thought about that," I said to conceal myself. "But he brought something."She immediately paused, and her eyes became smaller. "What did he bring?"I proceeded to the table and recovered Dan's misplaced USB disk. "This. He stated it contains everything. Proof of what Rose has been up to."Rita stared at the drive as if it were going to burst. "Do you genuinely trust him? After everything that's occurred?""I don't know what to believe!" I exclaimed, weeping. "But what am I expected

    Rita answered, "We're here." I grasped the steering wheel really firmly."Helen, calm down," Rita remarked. To console me, she stretched across and squeezed my hand. "We just want you to answer a few questions; that's all."I simply grinned and nodded. But given my anxiety, I felt strange in my gut. A few days previously, Rita and I studied data to establish which hospital Rose's son, Henry, was born in. Rita's acquaintance urged me to come; she worked in the records section of this hospital. I didn't want to come. But I had to know. I had to discover if Rose was lying when she said Henry was Ashton's son.Are you good? Rita asked, cocking her head.I blinked and found myself in the same spot. My thoughts was drifting again. "Yeah, sorry," I murmured softly, fumbling with my seatbelt.Rita chuckled and grinned. "You already left me in the car and drove off to Wonderland. Come back, Helen. I need you here."I forced a little smile. "I'm here," I stated, although I was engaged with some

    She inhaled deeply and looked sideways for a second. Then she spoke quietly and said, "I don't want to frighten you. But yes, I may be hiding something from you. It is to keep you safe. You'll soon understand."I shook my head. "No, Rose. That isn't true. I don't believe you. I believe you are trying to deceive me. Or worse, get me hurt."Her eyes were hard and cold as they gazed at me for a moment. “Perhaps I am. Or perhaps I am just protecting you. You're so clever; you think you know everything, but sometimes you are so stubborn you can't see reality.”I folded my fists. “Look? I knew it. You're not doing a project. You're plotting something. And I don't like it.”She smiled once more, a false, pleasant smile she employed when keeping a secret. “Alright, Ash. If you wish to believe I am doing something bad, that is your choice. But I swear, I’m just trying to assist you.”I stared at her with a growing sense of anger and confusion. I didn't know why, but something didn't feel right

    Chapter 107Ashton’s POVI entered the restaurant. My suit was freshly washed, and I had my tie loose and casual but still appearing great. I heard the soft talking and clinking of glasses in the background. As I entered, Rose came over to me with her usual joking manner."Gee, who's neat and handsome?" she exclaimed, settling back in her chair with a grin, her eyes sparkling in the dim light of the hanging lamps.I shook my head and smiled slightly. "Rose, please. What do you want?"She smiled and pushed back her long hair. "Relax, Ashton. Can't I just give my good friend a compliment without needing something else?""No," I insisted as I sat down across from her. "Not when it's you."Rose laughed once more and signaled to the waitress, who approached with a menu. She barely lookd at it before speaking."I would like my steak to be medium rare and with mashed potatoes on the side. And for him." she smiled and gestured towards me."Nothing," I told her, handing her the menu. "I'm not

    The headlights illuminated the windows of the car as Dan drove, and the roar of the engine ruptured the silence between us. I leaned back in the front seat with my jacket spread out in neat squares in my lap. My head bobbed up and down insistently as I replayed what had occurred that night."I think we're good liars," I broke the silence, finally speaking. The corners of my mouth curved into a smile.Dan smiled softly, gripping the steering wheel. "That's one way of putting it, I suppose. But we had to remove you. We didn't have a choice.""Yeah, but how you phrased it," I said, chuckling. "'Ashton's company can't do without him. For real. You made me sound like I'm in charge of the whole shebang."Dan sneered, looking at me for a moment. "Well, aren't you? The Ashton Blackwood, company savior, puzzle solver, and, apparently, escape artist extraordinaire."I smiled and shook my head. "Escape artist. That's a new one."Dan smiled and rocked back in his chair. "You know, this isn't the
