At that moment, it felt as if all the blood in my body rushed to my head, leaving me cold and panicked.

I had been so careful-had I been found out?

My mind raced, trying to figure out a way to escape. They wouldn't harm me at the Hudson Residence, but they might have discovered who I was. What should I do?

Just as I was trembling in fear, a figure stepped forward. To my surprise, it was Luke!

With a cold expression, he said, "It's me. What are you two doing here?"

He exuded an air of tithority, showing no fear, and instead questioned the two of them.

To anyone watching, it looked like a privileged young man being questioned by staff, so his reaction seemed normal. I seized the opportunity to slip away.

I moved briskly, the cold wind brushing against my face from both sides. I didn't dare pause for even a second.

The fear was overwhelming.

Who was backing Anna? Aside from that woman and Silas, how many others were working with her? How many of them were hidden within the Hudson Residence? And what were their intentions?

"What's wrong?" Carter's voice broke through my racing thoughts, snapping me back to reality.

Not far away, Damian was pushing Carter along. He must have noticed my distressed expression because he gave me a concerned look.

"Nothing," I replied quickly. "It's just so cold outside. I wanted to get indoors as fast as possible."

Though he could tell I wasn't being truthful, he chose not to press me further.

The moment I stepped into the living room, the warmth of the heater surrounded me, yet I still felt chilled to the core.

While I had been making my moves, Anna had been doing the same.

She had doubted me for some time.
