Chapter 267

(Victoria's POV)

My mind raced as I stared at Connor Blackthorn standing before me, very much alive.

I forced myself to suppress the storm of emotions threatening to overwhelm me. Panic wouldn't serve me now. I needed to regain

control of this situation.

Tears welled in my eyes on command—a skill I'd perfected over years of manipulation. I made my voice small and aggrieved, the

perfect picture of a woman wronged.

"Connor, let go, you're hurting me," I whimpered, trying to pry his fingers from my jaw. When he didn't release me, I let more

tears spill down my cheeks. "What's wrong with you? What are you talking about, all this talk of death?"

His grip remained firm, his eyes cold and unreadable. I needed to push harder.

"Emma said you left early and abandoned her alone," I continued, injecting just the right amount of maternal concern into my

voice. "I haven't even scolded you yet-Emma is only seven. How could you leave a young pup by herself at Bleakshore Beach?"
