***~~Soren~~***That's when it dawned on Rebecca.The balance of power has shifted and so does her stance shifts.Her brows lifts and I can see wheels turning in her head.Good.Her gloating time's over.The room shifts, the air thickens, charged with an unhidden tension My eyes drifts to Alfred and he has this look — eyes all scrunched up, like he can't wait to see what I have up my sleeves.More than that, I see a man who believes in me completely.My father seems hurt. His eyes won't leave Rebecca.He hasn't moved. Not an inch.He's shell-shocked.It's like he's struggling to digest everything.I almost feel pity for him. Almost.Cameron can't even hold my gaze anymore, but I see the way his jaw is locked hard.Ashley?She looks like her soul has zapped out of her body.“Looks like I picked up the wrong envelope,” Benjamin says, reaching for the next one.He lifts it. “That's it?”I nod, pocketing a hand.“That’s a whole load of crap,” Rebecca snorted loudly, trying to throw a f

***~~Delilah~~***There's something in Rebecca's gaze that tells me she never expected this.Turns out Soren's plan and distance stunt worked.It was no news that I pulled out of Bsg and went back to LA.The news had spread like wildfire.But that's what we aimed for.When it happened, everyone especially Rebecca thought it was over.Well, it was far from that.Everyone is out now except the Lancaster immediate family.Jenaya alongside Meghan takes Liam and June away.Ashley hasn't stop glaring at me but more than that it was fear.Fear of what might happen.“Rebecca, would you care to explain to them what happened to my car before the accident?” Elena says.Rebecca shoots her a glare.“The thing is you always think you're smart, Rebecca.” Elena’s voice cuts in again. “But the truth? You're dumber than dog shit.”It hits where it ought to.Rebecca snaps her eyes to her. “You know that is a lie. You're just mad I have what you can't keep.”Soren chuckles.“Ganging up with Dr Frank to

This isn’t how it was supposed to go.Soren shouldn’t have found out.This was meant to destroy him, not me.How the hell did he find out?!My gaze locks on Delilah and my blood runs cold.I
