Natalie froze, glancing at the incoming call. Her heart dropped.
That number—it was from the Witch Doctor.
But why was he calling her? Their transaction had ended five years ago.

Instinctively, she pressed a hand to her side, where the pain of having her rib removed still echoed deep in
her memory
She quickly rejected the call and said flatly, “Spam. Probably a scam number.”
Jensen glanced at her, then nodded, thinking of the recent scam warnings involving foreign numbers.
Scam calls are getting through? That means your number’s probably been leaked. I’ll have my assistant get you a new number tomorrow.”
Before Natalie could respond, Jensen’s own phone rang–with that distinct ringtone.
She instantly knew: it was Sharon.
Jensen shot Natalie a guilty glance, quickly declined the call, and mumbled, “Assistant calling about work. I’ll take it in the living room.”
Without waiting for a response, he rushed out.
Natalie’s eyes drifted to her phone.
It was still linked to the smart voice assistant in the living room–Alexa. Jensen thought it was just a Bluetooth speaker. He had no idea it had a built–in surveillance camera.
Natalie had never used it to spy on him. But today, with Sharon calling, something twisted inside her. She wanted to know how he acted with Sharon when she wasn’t around.
She lowered the volume and opened the Alexa app.
On–screen, Jensen sat at the bar, holding his phone. His eyes gazed out the window, completely unaware that the wind chime–symbol of their love–was gone.
His voice was soft and gentle. “I’ll come back to you in a bit.”
Sharon’s voice came clearly through the mic.
“Jensen, you’re the sweetest. Hey, the new Luke Corp jewelry line is launching tomorrow. Can I come? I heard it’s the Devotion series by Sunny–it’s perfect for our honeymoon vibe! You designed it, didn’t you? You’re Sunny, right?”
Jensen paused, slightly startled.
“I’m not-
