The call

—As I told you, I did what you asked. Just don't do anything to her. She has nothing to do with your plans. Besides, the one you wanted was the mother, right? It's done. Just bring reinforcements to cover this up. Think of an excuse for Sienna. You better not let her find out.

—Calm down—.He replied— Your only duty was to kill the mother. You already did. Don't try to be a good person now, after what you did, especially when you "cared" about Sienna. Do your job as a bodyguard so she doesn't suspect anything. It was the best thing for everyone to finish off that wretch.

I shouldn't cry; that won't bring you back. I have to think about how to escape, or I'll be the next victim.

But... What if this had all been a plan from the beginning? What if he was involved too?

The phone vibrated in his hand. A message with no sender appeared on the screen:

"Trust no one."
