Chapter 12 

Mandy’s attempt to force her way into my home was thwarted by the staff. 

Her pallor was genuine this time, not one of her performances. 

“Yvonne, please, don’t let Luke leave me.” 

I checked the time–ten minutes until departure. 

“He’s not my concern anymore.” 

The words triggered something in her. Mandy’s composure shattered as she thrashed about, eyes

“You witch! You’re making Luke abandon me!” 

“He loves me! ME! What right do you have to take him?” 

“My brother’s dead–I have nothing left. Can’t you just let me have Luke?” 

Her face contorted between tears and maniacal laughter. 

“Your brother deserved his fate.” 

Mandy froze, then began trembling as realization dawned. 

“Your brother stole my USB meant for Luke. He crashed on his way.” 

“And you? You watched Luke carry that guilt all these years.” 

“You’ve basked in your glory long enough, Mandy. Time to face the consequences.” 

She shook her head in desperate denial. 

“No… no…” 

“Is that true?” Luke’s voice cut through the air. 

Mandy’s body convulsed. 

I had no desire to witness their confrontation. It was time to leave.

“Let go!” He shoved her aside. 

The scene echoed that night at the police station. 

The car window sealed, muting the chaos outside. 

Gavin’s concerned gaze found mine. “Are you alright?” 

I offered a detached smile. 

Luke’s fists pounded against the window, creating dull thuds. 

His mouth moved, forming words I couldn’t–wouldn’t–hear. 

The soundproofing was impeccable. 

As the car pulled away, I leaned back. 

In the 

or, Luke’s desperate figure grew smaller. 

Until he disappeared entirely. 

I closed my eyes.
