Chapter 187

Victoria stopped by the office that afternoon to ask Curtis for three days off.

She needed the time for the upcoming race and to help Osborn with his final test drive-there was no way she could make it into work.

Curtis watched her enter, a dozen questions swirling through his mind.

He agreed to her request, but couldn't hold back his curiosity.

"So, Victoria... you and Mr. Campbell-do you know each other?"

Maybe Victoria wasn't as straightforward as he'd once thought. Aside from knowing she was married and in the middle of a messy separation, Curtis realized how little he truly understood about her. He didn't even know where she lived, let alone who her husband was.

Was it possible Victoria's divorce was because of her own infidelity? Had she cheated-with Stein, of all people? He couldn't figure out why these thoughts kept connecting in his mind, and even he had to admit how ridiculous it sounded: a general from Evermore City and a married woman from Starfall, barely even out of Curtis's sight-could she really be Mr. Campbell's secret lover?

"So, where are you headed? Off to see Mr. Campbell?" The words slipped out before Curtis could stop himself. Mr. Campbell had left on a private jet that afternoon-was Victoria planning to join him?

The idea was driving Curtis crazy. He didn't want to ask, but he couldn't seem to help himself.
