She had been running nonstop all day and was completely drained. The moment she closed her eyes, sleep nearly took her.

Then suddenly, the car sped up.

“Ma’am, we’re being followed,” the driver warned. “I’m increasing speed. Please be alert.”

Sierra jolted awake. She checked the rearview mirror–and sure enough, a car was tailing them.

The head of her security detail, seated in the front passenger seat, immediately radioed the other cars. Their convoy repositioned to shield Sierra’s vehicle from both sides while the driver stayed focused.

Perhaps realizing Sierra was too well protected, the pursuing car didn’t follow for long and eventually backed off.

Still, the security chief remained on high alert until they returned safely to the Wynn family estate. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.

“Ma’am, get some rest. I’ll investigate who was following us,” he said.

“And keep eyes on the hospital,” Sierra added coldly, “Also… make sure Victor is properly entertained.”

She hadn’t wanted to stoop to this level, but Victor had gone too far.

She knew exactly why Susie had gone to see him–it was for Jonathan.

That thought alone filled her with sorrow.
