Chapter 186



I was frantically tapping my phone, trying to initiate a video call, but the other end just wouldn't pick up.

I must've replayed the video a dozen times. Geneva was definitely alive, still wearing the outfit from our barbecue night.

But the surroundings were too dark to make out anything clearly.

I knew I should call the cops, but I was torn. What if Talbot's guys were watching me? What if he decided to go through with his threats?

Talbot had mentioned I should reach out to Galen Brown, but I didn't even have his contact info.

In a whirlwind of frustration, I found myself ascending to the rooftop for some air, and there he was-Galen Brown.

"Melanie!"

He was hiding out in the same spot where we last spoke.

I stared at him in disbelief, "Galen, you've been here the whole time?"

He nodded, "It's the safest place. I know the hospital well enough to avoid the cameras."
