Chapter 165

I looked down at my phone in surprise. During our whole conversation, she hadn’t even asked me for my name. When I thought about it further, that made sense. Amelia only wanted to be rid of Chloe. If Amelia Hawthorne had her mind set on something, she was laser focused and didn’t rest until she achieved it.

That was why she was the perfect person to find where Chloe and her corrupt family had hidden Russell Lewis’s body.

I put my phone in my purse, then hurried into work, not wanting to be late.

“Hey, do you know why there’s a block in Alexander’s schedule on Saturday?” I asked.

She looked away from her computer and sighed. “He has decided to take a last–minute trip to Luceland this Saturday,” she explained.

Gai rubbed her temples and shook her head. “I don’t. I also don’t know if he is taking you or me with him.”

“Why would he take a…” The rest of my question caught in my throat.

This spur of the moment trip reminded me of the last–minute party that
