In a flash, Hailey suddenly remembered something.

Hailey thought, ‘Could it be that Owen had purposely left it here that night? But that didn’t make sense. Why would he do

“Miss Dalton,” Gracie called again, her voice a bit louder this time.

Hailey took a deep breath and said, “Miss Burke, I just want to clarify–your boyfriend didn’t stay here last night

“No, he didn’t. But what about the night before? The night before that?” Gracie’s eyes reddened, and her beautiful face looked on the verge of breaking.

She said again, “Miss Dalton, from the moment you arrived, I felt something was off. But after being with Owen for so long, I’ve never seen him with anyone else special. I trusted him and I trusted you, but you both have betrayed my trust.

Hailey felt a shiver run down her spine. “Miss Burke, you’re mistaken.”

“Cousins?” Gracie raised an eyebrow, clearly surprised.

Raphael nodded, walking over to Hailey and putting an arm around her shoulder. “Yes, they’re cousins. If you don’t believe me, feel free to ask your boyfriend. I’m sure he’ll give you a straight answer.”

Gracie bit her lip but didn’t say anything more. She took the watch and walked out.

As Gracie left, Hailey’s body went limp with relief. She closed her eyes, her face pale, and a faint expression of pain crossed her features.
