Chapter 402 A Man of His Word

Michael’s POV:

I knew Caden Holbrook well–he was a man of his word and never made light of his words.

If he denied being responsible, then there was no question that he was telling the truth.

That meant someone else had to be pulling the strings from the shadows.

“Wendy, have you made any enemies?” I asked, deep in thought.

She frowned in confusion. “Huh?”

“Caden denied having anything to do with leaking what happened that night,” I said in a low voice.

Her face lit up instantly. “Really? So that means he still cares about me, maybe even likes me a little, right?”

“I haven’t!” Wendy shook her head, looking completely bewildered. “Who would I have offended? The worst it could be is someone envious of me.”
