I could barely hear the words he was saying but I could see that he was angry.“What is it?” I asked.He was about to reply to me when his phone rang and he answered the call. “Tell me you have good news.” He said to the person on the other end. I couldn’t hear the person’s reply. “I hope it’s good.” The call ended and he went on his phone.

I’ll meet you there, sir.” He said and hung up.“What happened?” Isabella asked.“There’s a problem at work.” I answered.“A big problem or a small problem?”“Hopefully a small one.

I would have been shot and nobody would have found my killers. I was sure of it.I still couldn’t believe that Julius had a hand in it. Did the breakup hurt him that much that he wanted to kill me? Even though he had been the one to end things between us.After an hour of staying at Adrian’s house, his mother and Theo joined me. “Are you okay, love?” Vivian asked.“No.” I shook my head.
