For the first time in months, business was finally looking up. The reports sitting in front of me finally contained more good news than problems. Our latest quarterly figures showed steady growth, improvement in investor confidence, and two major deals that had been delayed during the scandal Eva caused had finally gone through. Dhark Holdings was recovering. More importantly, it was recovering without my having to spend every waking hour putting out fires started by a woman who had once claimed to love me. I glanced at the financial report on the conference table while our chief financial officer walked the board through the figures. “Revenue has increased by twelve percent compared to the previous quarter,” he explained. “Our overseas investments are performing better than projected, and the renewed confidence from our existing investors has opened the door to several new opportunities.” A few members of the board exchanged pleased looks. Director Whitmore nodded. “E

“Someone in my house has been working for Eva?” I repeated—as if repeating the words might somehow make them less absurd. Margot nodded. “That’s what Hart told me.” I stared at her, trying to make sense of what she’d just said. A maid. Someone who had worked under my roof for years, someone who had access to my home and the people in it, had been feeding information to the woman who had nearly destroyed my life. My first instinct was to dismiss it. Not because I believed Eva was incapable of something like this—I knew precisely what she was capable of. But Hart Sullivan? I didn’t trust that bastard. Hart was a violent criminal who had spent years doing Eva’s bidding, and that’s all he would ever be in my eyes. While his testimony had helped expose her lies, I wasn’t about to start accepting everything he said as the unquestionable truth. “Are you certain?” I asked Margot. “And before you answer, remember who we’re talking about. Hart has hurt innocent people

The moment Caroline turned toward me, I knew she wasn’t going to make this easy. “Now tell me, Claire. What exactly do you think I’ve done?” I held her gaze. “I think you’ve been helping spread the rumors about me.” I replied in a beat. She scoffed. “And what makes you think that?” “Because you knew me—better than most people.” “That doesn’t answer my question.” “Eva Sterling approached you, didn’t she?” Caroline’s expression remained unchanged, but something in her eyes sharpened. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.” “Don’t insult my intelligence.”Caroline scoffed loudly. “You really are entitled You’re the one who showed up at my workplace, followed me to my car, and practically threatened me into having this conversation. Now you’re accusing me of conspiring with a woman who’s on trial for a number of serious offenses.” “I’m asking you a question.” “And I’ve answered it.” “No, you haven’t.” She let out an exasperated breath and reached for the do

I called Claire again.The phone rang until the call disconnected, leaving me staring at her name on the screen with my jaw clenched. Still nothing. I had called her so many times that I had lost count. Margot had tried reaching her too, with no success. Neither of us knew where she was, and the longer she remained unreachable, the more my uneasiness grew. Claire knew I worried about her. She also knew I disliked being kept in the dark, particularly now, when she was carrying our child. If she was busy, she could have at least sent a message. If she needed time alone, she could have told me. Anything would have been better than this silence. I lowered my phone and looked across my study at Margot. She sat in the chair opposite my desk, her cane resting beside her. Despite her recovery, she looked as sharp and formidable as ever. “She might simply be occupied,” she said. “She has been occupied for hours?” “I didn’t say it was likely. I said it was possible.” I exhale

The moment my driver pulled into the driveway of the Dhark mansion, I noticed Margot’s car parked near the entrance. My brows creased. What was she doing here? Margot rarely visited the mansion without a reason, and given her ongoing recovery, I couldn’t imagine her making an unnecessary trip. Had something happened? Had Hart revealed any new information after I left the station? I glanced at my phone, wondering whether Lucian had tried calling me again. There were several missed calls from him, along with a message asking me to call him as soon as I could. Guilt tugged at me again. He must be livid. I hadn’t deliberately intended to ignore him for so long. After confronting Caroline and learning that Eva had recruited her to spread those disgusting rumors about me, I’d needed time to think. I knew Lucian would want to know where I’d been and why I hadn’t answered his calls, and I hadn’t been ready to explain everything. Still, I should have sent him a message. I c
