Their Secret Obsession by Pippa Moon

Chapter 133

Third Person POV.

There was a lot of tension in the room as Kayden and Angela faced each other. Kayden had a rather displeased look on his face, while Angela looked like she couldn’t wait to be rid of him.

“I can’t believe you of all people let Marlene manipulate you into making such a decision, Angela,” Kayden accused, his voice edged with frustration. “How could you let her talk you into committing murder? Just how?”

He had been taken aback when he heard from Marlene that Angela was the one responsible for the accident that put Amber in critical condition. He had thought that Marlene was the one responsible, but to find out that Angela had done it on Marlene’s orders made him even more shocked.

Kayden let out a scoff of disbelief. “And yet, here we are, and she’s still alive. Your little plan failed, Angela. Marlene pushed you to the edge of a cliff, and you just let her do it. Now you’re

right where she wants you, and it’s all because of your foolishness.”

Angela’s eyes flashed with irritation. “She might not be dead yet, Kayden, but she’s barely alive. I

heard she’s fighting for her life, which means she’ll likely be dead soon enough.“”

Kayden shook his head in exasperation. “But until then, she’s still breathing. And you’ve become
