Chapter 104 Turning the Tide

Finished

So back in the Westwood Mountain tunnel, when Easton came across Julia lying on the ground-

His first instinct wasn’t to help her. It was to wonder if she might be the one Jean warned him. about–someone who could cause serious damage.

He was instantly on guard and turned on his voice recorder.

It wasn’t a big deal. Just a precaution.

If nothing happened afterward, all the better.

But if Julia really did plan to spread lies and cause trouble, he’d have concrete evidence to defend himself.

Easton set his phone down and looked at her with a faint, amused smile. His voice was gentle.

There was something cryptic in the way he said it, like his words had layers.

Jean stared at him. “Can you talk like a normal person for once?” she asked, not bothering to hide the exasperation in her tone.

Easton let out a soft laugh. “I don’t know,” he said with a shrug, his face catching the afternoon light from the window. “Maybe it was a flash of inspiration. Or a total coincidence. Either. hit record… didn’t expect it to come in handy. Guess you could call it fate.”

Jean gave a dry laugh. “Wow. That’s basically a whole bunch of nothing. Classic.”

Easton just smiled and didn’t say anything more.

His phone buzzed. A new message from his agent popped up on WeChat:
