Cloudia stared at the butler in sheer terror. “This…”

Her mind was so overwhelmed that she couldn’t even hear her own voice. She glanced down again at the documents in her hands–every detail about that woman’s entry into the Larkin Group and the role Ursula played in it.

Cloudia’s mind went blank in an instant, and she felt the blood in her veins run cold and backwards.

Stella and Tegan had just finished their coffee on Rigou Street and were planning to grab some lunch when Tegan’s phone buzzed.

Stella assumed it might be Uriah calling. It seemed like Tegan had been through a lot with the Horner family lately. Even if she hadn’t said a word, Stella could sense Tegan’s growing aversion to them.
