Chapter 67



That night, Chloe couldn't sleep a wink. Sleep eluded her even after tossing and turning in bed until she was completely spent. She got up and sat on the balcony's wicker chair, watching the night melt into dawn.

She was stuck on a decision, wrestling with her thoughts. After all these years, despite all the wrongs Linda had done to her, Chloe had never wished her dead. She had once pulled Linda out of a dark place. 'But now, Linda, I'm going to send you back to that hell. Because that's where you truly belong.' Chloe vowed in silence.

As the first light of dawn appeared, Chloe picked up her phone and dialed a number. "Aunt Shannon? Did you know Linda is back in the country?"

By eight in the morning, the television station was bustling with people. Chloe's car was parked nearby. After a while, she noticed a stooped woman loitering at the entrance-Linda's mother, Shannon. Shannon looked like a beggar, with her tattered clothes and messy hair. But her sharp eyes gleamed with a certain greedy light as she watched people entering the station.

Finally, Linda appeared. Shannon grabbed her by the arm. "Linda, it really is you! You ungrateful girl. You're back in the country and didn't even bother to tell me."
