Chapter 21 CLAUDIA

MARK'S POV Standing in front of my desk, I stared at the woman in front of me coldly. "What are you doing here?""Ohh, come on Mark. Is that a way to greet your fiance?" She asked with that annoying smile on her face, a smile I know too well.Gritting my teeth, I scoffed "Ex fiance!" I corrected her, my voice dripping with malice.Claudia’s smile faltered for a split second, but she recovered quickly, brushing an invisible speck off her designer blazer as she stepped closer.“Technicalities” she purred. “You never really ended things properly. One could say you just… ran away.”“I should’ve run faster” I said flatly, my jaw tight. “And you showing up here unannounced? Bad idea.”She tilted her head, eyes gleaming with false sweetness. “I missed you, darling. And from the looks of things, I’m not the only one who’s… interested in you lately.”My eyes narrowed. So that’s what this was about.She leaned against the edge of my desk, crossing her arms. “She’s pretty, your secretary. Has n

Chapter 22 Agnes Langford

ELEANOR'S POV Walking out of the elevator with Liam, he offered to drive me home but I refused cause I had other plans. "I brought my car and today's friday, I don't wanna leave my car in the company's parking lot throughout the whole weekend." I gave an excuse that I knew would work on him. Shrugging, he led me to my car and pecked me on my forehead before waving me goodbye, a soft smile on his face. I smiled back, keeping it light, but the moment I slipped into my car and shut the door, the warmth faded from my face, seriousness taking over. I started the engine, but didn’t drive home. Instead, I pulled out the small notebook from my bag, the one with the scribbled address I’d tracked down earlier this week. Agnes Langford. A former housekeeper for the Garrett family. The same year Sarah disappeared… Agnes vanished too. Coincidence? I didn’t believe in those anymore. I typed the address into my GPS and pulled out of the lot, heading across town toward a quiet,

Chapter 23 The letter

Agnes huffed under her breath, muttering something I couldn’t catch. She straightened her shoulders and gave me a long, penetrating look, like she was memorizing my face in case this went badly. Then she walked to the door, undid the latch, and opened it just a crack. I stayed pressed against the wall, just out of sight, heart hammering against my ribcage. Mark’s voice was immediate. “Where is she?” “She’s gone” Agnes replied flatly. “Just left.” There was a beat of silence. I imagined Mark narrowing his eyes. “She was here, right?” “She’s not anymore” Agnes said, her tone sharp now, even as her hand gripped the edge of the door tighter. “And I don’t answer to you, young man.” Silence again. Then his voice, quieter this time. “Tell her to be careful. That’s all I wanted to say.” I heard footsteps retreating slowly, measured, heavy. The door creaked shut again. Agnes turned around, her chest rising and falling faster than before. “You sure he’s not one of them?” s

Chapter 24 Distorted memories

Agnes hesitated. Her wrinkled hands clutched the edge of her chair, knuckles whitening as she stared down at the dusty floor. “A ledger” she finally said, her voice low and tight. “Your mother kept a detailed record...dates, names, deals. Everything the Garrett family tried to bury. Corrupt officials, bribes, offshore accounts, blood money... even people who went missing under mysterious circumstances. All of it. She was going to use it to bring the entire empire down.” My heart thundered. “Where is it now?” “That’s the problem” Agnes said, looking up at me with haunted eyes. “She hid it before she died. She didn’t trust anyone, not even me. All she told me was that the key to finding it was ‘with Mariah.’ My breath caught. “With me?” She nodded slowly. “It’s why I’ve stayed hidden all these years. I’ve been trying to protect you, hoping no one would connect the dots. If the Garretts or anyone loyal to them...figured out who you are, they'd come for you. Not just because you’re

Chapter 25 Kidnapped

It felt like a trap. Like I was being led… or watched. My eyes darted to the windows, heart thudding faster. I stood slowly, walked to the curtains and yanked them closed. I didn’t see anything or anyone...but that didn’t calm the feeling crawling up my spine. What if this whole thing...this key, this chest, even meeting Agnes was orchestrated? What if I wasn’t uncovering the truth so much as being fed it? I looked back down at the chest. The key still sat in the lock like it was waiting. I didn’t trust it. But I also didn’t trust not opening it. What if it held everything? My fists clenched. No. Not yet. I needed to be smart. I needed to be sure no one else had touched this. No one else had access. I pulled the key out and tucked it back into my coat pocket. Then I shoved the chest deeper into the closet and stacked a few boxes over it, just enough to hide it without looking suspicious. Then I grabbed my phone and started checking for bugs...literally. The corne
