Yolanda and Ian drove until noon, when the sky darkened without warning. Rain slammed down in thick sheets, forcing them to slow.

Yolanda gripped the wheel, tension coiling in her chest. They were so close–already in town, just minutes from the film crew’s hotel. But the storm had other plans.

Pulling over, Yolanda grabbed an umbrella and hurried into the lobby, only to freeze at the sight of Sophic. Of course. Sean’s production was shooting here too. Fate seemed determined to throw them together.

Sophie’s lethargy vanished as her eyes narrowed into venomous slits. “Do you have some kind of tracking device on me?” she spat.

Yolanda brushed past without acknowledgment. This hotel was the best in town, so it was fully booked by the two competing productions–Sean’s crew occupied the third floor while Zack’s team was stationed above them.

The elevator doors opened. Yolanda and Ian stepped inside, followed by a determined Sophie. The other guests wisely chose to wait for the next ride.

As the elevator ascended, Sophie rolled her eyes. “Don’t think knowing Charles’s wife gives you some special advantage,” she sneered. “Mark my words: on their anniversary in two days, Charles will be in my bed, not hers.”

Yolanda remained impassive, though she had to admire Sophie’s tenacity. Two years was an impressive run for one of Charles’s playthings. Though knowing him, he’d likely had other dalliances. At least Max had definitely mentioned a fling with a CEO or something.

The elevator dinged on the third floor. Sophie delivered one final glare, mistaking Yolanda’s silence for fear. With a triumphant sniff, she strutted out.

Yolanda and Jan made their way up to the fourth floor.

Ian stole a glance at her, but she seemed unfazed, her attention fixed on locating the right

room.

Inside, the room turned out to be surprisingly decent. Tonight was their final table read before the crew headed into the mountains, where the actors would be staying for the next
