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.

Angela’s lips curled into a disdainful sneer as she shot back, “You I

you? way out if you really wanted to. But
no, you jumped at the chance to do her bidding, didn’t you? Admit it, Angela. You’ve been waiting for
an excuse to rid yourself of Amber ever since Richard her, so you decided to do as Marlene

wanted so that you could use such a dumb excuse to justify your actions.”
Angela’s jaw tightened, but she maintained her defiant stance. “Don’t pretend like you don’t want her
gone too. You should be happy that I did what you nor Marlene could have done since you’re
both cowards.”

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
another pawn in Marlene’s game. Congratulations, Angela. You played right into her hands, and I
cannot save you, nor do I think I want to.”

Silence settled between them, heavy and suffocating. The reality of the situation hit Angela all at
once, and all she could do was wonder how she could save herself now.
Finally, she broke the silence, her voice laced with desperation. “Okay, fine, I’ll admit that I made
a mistake. ! shouldn’t have listened to Marlene or tried to kill Amber. But now that it’s too late
for regrets, what Kayden? I can’t undo what’s been done, and I’m going to need
o you suggest I do
your help to get
out of this mess.”
Kayden sighed heavily, running a hand through his hair in frustration. “For starters, you’ll need to
choose because the Marlene I know is most likely going to try to get you to clean up the mess.”
Angela nodded grimly. “And if I don’t?”
Kayden’s expression hardened. “Then you’ll be next on her list. So here are your options: you would
either have to finish what you started by ensuring that Amber doesn’t survive, or you’ll have to
leave the country as soon as possible.”
“I have to leave the country. And why is that? It’s not like anybody knows that I’m the one
responsible for what happened to Amber. I’m pretty sure they’re going to be suspecting either you or
Marlene, but definitely not me,” Angela retorted, not seeing any sense in her having to leave the
country.
Kayden let out a dark chuckle before responding to her. “Well, maybe if you weren’t stupid enough to step out of your car when the accident happened and allowed yourself to be caught by the surveillance cameras around, just maybe then your name wouldn’t have appeared on the suspect list,” he retorted.
Colors drained from Angela’s face as the meaning of Kayden’s words dawned on her. “Are you being
serious right now, Kayden?” she asked. NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.
“Would I be joking?” Kayden retorted. “A contact of mine who is on the case told me that you are the prime suspect at the moment, and Richard already knows this. Now, I know you think that he still has some leniency toward you, but that leniency has expired, Angela. You know that idiot is obsessed with Amber, so I’m pretty sure he’s coming for you soon,” he explained, a hint of amusement in his tone as
he spoke.
Angela’s hands trembled as she mustered up the courage to speak, her voice quivering with a mixture of fear and anger. “Kayden, I need you to leave. Now.”
Kayden’s eyes widened in shock. “You’re asking me to leave? Instead of begging for my help, Angela,

do you realize what you’re saying?”

Angela’s expression hardened, her eyes narrowing with a mix of annoyance and distrust. “I know exactly what I’m saying, Kayden. You’re not here to help me. You’re here to taunt me and revel in my misery. I’m pretty sure you’ve been looking for the perfect chance to get rid of me now that I’m a lover you no longer need, and now you’re here to watch me spiral for your sick entertainment. I don’t care how bad the situation gets, but I won’t let you toy with me any longer, Kayden. Get out of my
sight!”
Kayden scoffed, a bitter edge to his voice as he retorted, “You think I’m here for your amusement? Believe me, Angela, I would have tried to help you. Not because I care about you or anything, but because I won’t let Marlene get what she wants. All you needed to do was beg me earnestly, and you
would have been out of the country before the day ended.”
Angela’s gaze softened slightly, a flicker of doubt creeping into her eyes. “You expect me to believe that? Are you forgetting how well I know you? It’s clear that I’m just a lover you no longer need– someone disposable. And you would love for me to be gone since it’d be one less burden.”

Kayden locked eyes with Angela, amusement in his gaze. “I guess you’re right, Angela. You are no longer necessary to me. But I would have helped you regardless. Now, since you don’t want my help, I’ll leave you to go ahead and deal with Richard on your own. Let’s see how far that gets you.”
With those final words, Kayden turned and walked out of Angela’s apartment, leaving her standing there trembling with a mix of emotions. The weight of the situation settled heavily on her shoulders as
she rushed into her room, her hands shaking as she began to pack her bags.
Thoughts raced through Angela’s mind as she packed, her heart pounding in her chest. She suddenly
started to feel like she was running out of time, and the last thing she wanted was for Richard to
show up here.
The sudden sound of the doorbell sent a shiver down Angela’s spine, causing her hands to tremble
involuntarily. Panic set in as she considered the possibilities of who could be standing outside her
door.
Could it be Richard, the police, or even Marlene’s men coming to silence her on Marlene’s orders?
She cautiously made her way to the door, moving as silently as possible, trying to steady her racing
heart. Peering through the monitor, her breath caught in her throat as she saw the figure outside. It
was the apartment manager’s familiar face that brought a wave of relief washing over her.

With newfound courage, Angela opened the door to greet the older man, her voice carrying a slight
tremor. “Mr. Johnson, what brings you here? Is there something wrong?”
The apartment manager adjusted his glasses, and his voice was warm and gentle. “Miss Montez, I apologize for the intrusion. I just wanted to let you know that there will be some maintenance work happening in the building next week. It might cause some noise during the daytime. I thought it was important for you to be aware.”
Angela’s tense shoulders relaxed as she listened to Mr. Johnson’s explanation, grateful for the mundane nature of his visit. “Thank you for letting me know, Mr. Johnson. I appreciate the heads– up.
I’ll make sure to adjust my schedule accordingly.”
With a nod and a kind smile, the apartment manager bid Angela farewell and started to walk away.
Angela exhaled a deep breath, happy that she was still safe.

But just as she was about to close the door, it was violently pushed open, causing Angela to stumble
backward and fall on her butt, and her eyes widened in shock as Richard barged into her apartment.
She looked up at him, her voice trembling with a mixture of fear and disbelief. “Richard? What are
you doing here? How did you…”

Richard’s expression remained emotionless as he interrupted her, his voice cold and devoid of any
sympathy. “Long time, no see, Angela.”
