It's Rosie!" Ivy muttered, placing her hand on her chest.

She turned in circles, heading nowhere in particular, her eyes moving around the premises in a frantic search.

"Are you alright, ma'am?" Jonathan asked.

She wanted to say something, anything at all, but no words came out. It was as if

a knot had formed in her stomach and had painfully found its way to

her chest and throat.

"Let's go inside," Jonathan said, leading her back in.

Some of her employees voiced their concern as she sat down.

Jade rushed to her, her face redder than usual. "Everything good, ma'am?"

Before Ivy could answer, Jonathan spoke. "Get a bottle of water. Quick."

Jade dashed off and returned shortly with a bottle. She handed it to Ivy, her eyes shining with concern.

Ivy sipped the cold water slowly until it seemed to loosen the knot. She exhaled, allowing the tension to escape.

"Ma'am, should I call someone?" Jonathan asked, crouching by her side.

"No, I'm good," she said with a tight smile. Her tension spiked again when she saw the envelope with Jonathan, but she controlled it this time, refusing to let the panic take over again.

The metallic taste in her mouth wouldn't fade, so she drank some more, forcing the nausea down.

It had to be Rosie. But what exactly was she playing at?

Had she captured Ivy and Mason together as a threat? Or was it just to prove that she was watching Ivy? To scare her? To hurt her?

Whatever it was, it didn't sit well with her. She sprang to her feet, refusing to be weakened by the panic again.

"I need to see the surveillance camera footage," she said. "I need to know how the envelope got there and who put it. I need the clip of when the reporters swarmed Aaliyah."

That had to be it.

"Right this way, ma'am," one of her security guards said, leading her to the control room.

Jonathan and Jade followed silently behind her. When they got there, the guard immediately got to work, clicking and typing until he found the footage.

"Here, ma'am."

Ivy watched intently, her eyes narrowed, scanning for any suspicious movement. And there it was.

While the reporters had clamored around Aaliyah, firing off questions. One particular figure didn't engage. Instead they walked to Ivy's car, slipped the envelope beneath the windshield wiper, and left./

It was a quick motion, almost missable if she hadn't known what to look for.
