Boone finally let out a long breath, the tension in his chest easing. “Let’s hope it really blows over. Keep an eye on everything for me—any hint of trouble, I want to know immediately.”

The manager nodded like a bobblehead. “Absolutely. You can rest easy. I won’t miss a thing.”

But what Boone didn’t know was that this was only the beginning.

Back in her room, Sloane picked up her phone and dialed a number. “Stick to the plan. Keep leaking it–slowly.”

Nothing hurts like death by a thousand cuts.

Sloane hung up and leaned back on the couch, eyes sharp with cold resolve. “People should pay for what they’ve done.”

The next day, a new comment stirred things up online.

The poster claimed to be a resident living near the site of the infamous accident. According to them, on the night of the crash, they saw a luxury car speeding away from the scene.

As soon as the comment appeared, a flood of replies followed.

“For real? Sounds like a clout–chaser to me.”
