Chapter 25

Sandra's mind was filled with questions as she drove down to Michael's place. Ever since their phone call, the major thing she had kept asking herself why Evelyn had not reached out to her since she arrived in Ludus, and why Evelyn had to leave the Hotel.

Where was the staying? Why was she back after six years? What did she want! Why was the interview with Derek Stone important to her?

The moment she arrived at Michael's house, she punched in the passcode and walked in since she knew he was expecting her and there was no neeil for unnecessary formalities between them.

The moment she walked into the living room she saw Michael, lounging on the sofa with a glass of whiskey in his hand. Although he was still wearing his work clothes but had taken off his jacket and loosened his tie

"What is going on, Mike? Why did you sound that way over the phone? Did Evelyn say anything to you? What happened?" Sandra demanded as she joined him on the couch. "Before 1 say anything. I have news. One good

good news and one bad news. Which do you want to hear first?" He asked as he raised his glass to his lips. "Hm. The bad one I guess," Sandra said after a moment's pause.

"Derek has agreed to do the exclusive interview with Evelyn, Michael said flatly, and Sandra stared at him in disbelief. "He did what? Why would he do that? Didn't you say he said he was not going to do it?" Sandra asked, rising from her seat. "That was what he said. I have no idea what that bitch did or said to him. I'm so fucking mad at everything right now," Michaels

I said Thitterly

Taking a deep breath, Sandra returned to her seat, "Calm down and tell me exactly what happened. How did you find out about Derek's decision! Did he tell you? Or did you hear it from Evelyn?" "Derek, that fool told me so himself. He said he's considering granting her the interview...

"There is hope then. The key word there is considering. We can change his mind." Sandra cut in, relieved.

"I know Derek. The only reason he would have said that is because he has made up his mind, Michael said and Sandra frowned

"Why would he do that? Why Evelynt Didn't you tell him who she is?" Sandra asked in confusion

"No L

I haven't. Not yet

"Why not? You should have told him who she was the moment he told you he was considering doing the interview with her. I don't think he'd be so willing to have anything to do with her if he knows she is the bitch that broke your heart. And who knows? If he cancels his arrangement with her, he just might consider letting me do it now that it seems like he is ready to reveal himself, Sandra said thoughtfully. have a point.

"What did she say?" Sandra asked, and Michael told her all about his encounter with Evelyn.

That bitch! I'm sure she was only bluffing. What makes her think she can seduce Derek or have him?" Sandra asked, seething
