Chapter 153

I made my way back into my apartment and sank into my chair in front of the computer, hoping to find some solace in the digital realm.

As I powered up my computer, my inbox pinged with a new email notification. It was from Penny, and my heart raced with a mixture of anticipation and dread. She had mentioned sending me digital copies of the photos she had taken of Stella and Andy. Part of me felt conflicted about using them as evidence, but the other part knew it was the perfect leverage against Stella.

I opened the email and saw the attached files. There they were–the damning images that captured Stella and Andy in a compromising position. I couldn’t deny the sense of satisfaction I felt at having tangible proof of their betrayal.

With the digital evidence at my fingertips, I contemplated my next move. I had considered sharing the photos on the online chat rooms where Timothy’s hardcore fans congregated, exposing the truth for all to see. It was tempting, but I knew that it could also lead to more chaos and destruction..

I wanted Timothy to know the truth, but I didn’t want to destroy his life in the process.

As I hesitated, my fingers hovering over the keyboard, the door to my room swung open. Aria barged in, her face a mask of distress. She didn’t even bother to knock.

“Evie, I need to talk to you,” she said urgently, her eyes wide with anxiety.

I sighed, feeling exasperated but also willing to hear her out. “What is it, Aria?”

She hesitated for a moment, clearly struggling to find the right words. “I just wanted to say I’m sorry about the whole making out on the couch thing.”

“Apology accepted,” I replied cautiously, unsure of where this was going.
