Chapter 75

Casey was thrown into a whirlwind of panic, his face turning ghostly pale. "Mr. Dylan, what are you doing? I came here as a friend to warn you about Clara, and this is how you thank me?"

In an instant, a sharp blade sliced through three of his fingers, drawing a scream from him as he convulsed in agony.

Dylan set his drink down, a trace of amusement dancing in his eyes. "So, tell me, what kind of person do you think she is?"

Casey quickly realized that Dylan was standing up for Clara. Everything was the opposite of what Simon had led him to believe!

His lips blanched as he tried to say something to calm this devil's fury, but before he could, he heard the chilling sound of a gun cocking.

Casey's pants were wet, and cold sweat was streaming down his face. "Mr. Dylan, I'm sorry. It's all a big misunderstanding, really. Those photos? They are fake. I didn't dare lay a finger on Clara. It was Jade who talked me into this, and Simon's no saint either."

“Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Four bullets tore into his leg, leaving him unable to scream. In his deepest pain, his body could only spasm, his voice caught in his throat.
