Chapter 10
Camila waited all night at the restaurant.
From dusk to dawn, Chase never came back.
Just after dawn, with dark circles etched deep under her eyes, she finally got the call.
“Come to the Whitmore estate. I need to talk to you.”
The moment Camila arrived, a vase came flying her way. She stumbled back in shock.
“Chase! What the hell are you doing?!”
He hurled a flash drive at her feet, his voice ice–cold.
“See for yourself.”
Camila plugged it in.
A woman’s gut–wrenching sobs burst out of the speakers, startling her so badly she dropped the drive.
“W–What… what is that sound…”
She instinctively reached out to grab Chase’s arm.
Only to be shoved aside.
“You’re trembling from the sound alone? What about when you sent those men to touch her?!”
Chase’s glare was lethal.
Camila froze, then quickly recovered.
“I didn’t! Weren’t those men sent by you? What does that have to do with me?”
“I only told them to scare her–grab her and shake her up a bit. I never told them to actually touch her!”
Chase stared her down, suspicion clouding his expression.
“Tell me now–was it you?”
“No!”
Camila didn’t even flinch.
“This has nothing to do with me! That video could be fake for all we know. Nora probably made it to frame me–so you’d pity her!”
“You know what she’s like! She’s never liked me. She’s always tried to ruin me. This is what she does–twist

things, manipulate people, stage a sob story.”
“If you believe her… you’re playing right into her hands!”
Chase’s once–solid resolve began to waver.
Camila’s argument–it made a kind of sense.
Nora had been acting out more lately. Hostile, irrational.
Maybe this was just another act–a cut–and–stitched performance to reel him back in.
And that part where she floated mid–air like someone was lifting her? How was that even real?
The more he thought about it, the more his earlier panic and guilt faded.
“I’m sorry, Camila. I lost my head, that’s all. Forgive me.
A flicker of spite passed through Camila’s eyes, though her smile remained sweet.
“It’s okay. She’ll come back when she calms down.”
“And you totally left me hanging at the restaurant last night. You ditched me all night–you owe me today.
Big time.”
Her coy little smile made Chase’s remaining doubts vanish.
“Alright. What kind of apology do you want?”
“I want you all to myself. The entire day.”
“You got it.”
Chase spent the whole day glued to Camila’s side-
But his phone didn’t stop ringing once.
Every thirty minutes, another report came in.
“Sir, we’ve searched every inch of the estate–the stables, the barns, even the ravines. No sign of Mrs.
Whitmore.”
“Sir, we dispatched helicopters and drones to the private island. Still no trace of her.”
“Sir, we’ve checked every street and hotel she frequently visited. Nothing.”
“Sir, we spoke to her closest friends. None of them know where she is.‘
With every call, Chase’s expression darkened further.

Sensing his mood, Camila dragged him toward the giant swing ride.
“This one’s a couples ride! They say if you kiss at the highest point, you’ll be together forever-”
Bang.
Chase slammed his fist into the ride’s metal post.
His eyes bored into Camila.
“It was you.”
“You set Nora up. You had yourself kidnapped, pinned it on her–and let those bastards touch her. Camila, you’re monstrous.”
Camila’s face went pale.
“W–What are you talking about?! I told you that footage is fake-!”
“It’s all fake! She made it to trick you–she’s obsessed with breaking us apart-”
Chase suddenly let out a low, sinister laugh.
Just now, after that last call, his bodyguard had sent over a second video–with audio this time.
Everything was there. Clear as day.
Camila’s involvement. Her orders. Her cruelty.
All this time…
He’d been played for a fool.
“Chase–what are you doing?! Don’t come any closer-!”
Her words were cut off by a strangled gasp.
His hands were around her neck.
