Tempted Trapped and Too Late to Run

Chapter 878

"Lucius, Michael, what are you two really after?"

Lucius gave her a sly smile. "If you want to stop me from selling my shares, you can—but first, you have to go to this address. Meet the person waiting for you there, and you'll understand everything."

He handed her a slip of paper.

Clara took it and glanced down.

It was for a hotel-one of the Montgomery Corporation's upscale properties. What were these two even planning?

They wouldn't go so far as to set her up with another man just to hurt Dylan, would they?

Lucius brushed past her. "I've got a meeting with our rival company at nine tomorrow morning. Whether you show up tonight or not is your call."

Clara stayed where she was, watching the two men disappear down the hall.

Only then did the Montgomery Corporation executives approach, all looking worried. Conlan led the group.

"Mrs. Montgomery, have you been able to reach the CEO?"

There was hope in Conlan's eyes. The CEO adored his wife-how could he just vanish?

Clara shook her head, slow and tired. All she knew was that Dylan was back in the country; she honestly had no clue where he'd gone.

She'd tried calling Richard, Jackson, Nicholas-none of them knew anything.
