Maja had been waiting for another ten minutes, but Zoey still refused to cout.

With no other options, she had to leave.

Getting back into her car, the warmth inside eased the irritation she felt from the cold.

Instead of heading back to the office, Maja decided to meet up with Elvis.

But Elvis wasn't fully clued in on all the surrounding Zoey; all he was aware of was the big fallout she had with Mia.

""l just can't believe Zoey would hit someone with her car. I found several witnesses from that night, and they all said the driver

ran over the victim three times on purpose.”

Such brutality didn't seem like Zoey at all.

Maja's expression darkened. It was highly likely that Zoey was taking the fall for someone else.

But who could have convinced her to so willingly take the blame?

"There's something else. There was this recording going around the high society circles, supposedly between Zoey and Mia. Zoey's

stepfather got Mia... well, let's just say the recording left her reputation in tatters. Right after that, Zoey was taken away by the

Haskins family, and I haven't been able to find out what happened next. If the Haskins family wanted to keep it under wraps,

there's no way I could investigate."

Maja was sharp as a tack. She immediately tried calling Mia, but her number had been disconnected. Clearly, the Haskins family

didn't want Mia to be reachable, which was suspicious.

With her lips pursed, she turned toBeck.

"Beck, taketo Fitch," she ordered.

Beck might not have been the sharpest tool in the shed, but even he could guess out that this mess had something to do with

Fitch.
