Chapter 32: Unraveling Alliances

(Sophia’s POV)

My hands trembled as I stared at my reflection in the bathroom mirror. The fear gnawed at me like a hungry

wolf.

What if Marcus truly abandoned me? What if I lost his protection forever?

The thought of returning to my old life made my stomach churn. I couldn’t go back to being nobody, to scraping by on others‘ charity.

Elena’s growing influence terrified me more each day. Her confident dismissal of my schemes, her calm defiance – it all pointed to someone who felt secure in her position.

I splashed cold water on my face, trying to steady my nerves. I needed answers about Elena’s true

relationship with Marcus.

(Elena’s POV)

I knocked on Director Henry Baker’s office door and waited for permission to enter.

“Come in, Elena,” Director Baker called out. He looked up from his paperwork with knowing eyes.

“You’re here about the William Cross situation, aren’t you?”

I nodded. “I wanted to confirm that I was the one who reported his corrupt activities.”

Director Baker leaned back in his chair, his expression grave. “I appreciate your honesty, but I’m concerned

about potential retaliation.”

officials can be vindictive toward those who expose them.”
