Listen Audiobook Version:



As Ewan and Joanne turned around, they saw the warehouse doors burst open with a loud bang.

A squad of police officers stormed in, shouting, "Hands in the air! Don't move!"

The sudden turn of events drained the color from Ewan and Joanne's faces.

Still trying to keep up appearances, Ewan shouted, "Where are my men? Where the hell are my men?"

Ewan's henchmen had already been forced to the ground.

"Mr. Ewan, we're over here! We're surrounded!"

What? They were surrounded? How was that even possible?

Today's operation had been meticulously planned. This place was quite secluded, so no one was supposed to know about it.

How could they possibly be surrounded?

"Put your hands in the air!" Two officers stepped forward and grabbed Ewan and Joanne.

Another officer moved over to Hailey and quickly untied the rope around her wrists.

Furious, Joanne glared at Hailey, demanding, "Hailey, what's going on? Why are the police here?"

Hailey let out a cold laugh. "Don't you find it strange? You thought your little scheme was flawless, didn't you? That you'd covered your tracks so well, and yet... Here the police are. They've got the place surrounded as well."

"Hailey, what's going on? What the hell did you do?" Ewan asked.

Just then, a low voice cut through the tension.

Both of them looked up. They were shocked when they saw who it was.

Joanne called out in disbelief, "Jonah!"

Jonah walked in with Justin by his side.

"Jonah, Justin, how did you two get here?" Joanne asked.

Ewan gasped in disbelief. "This is impossible! No one knows this location-how did you find us?"

Before anyone could answer, Justin suddenly rushed forward and slapped Joanne hard across the face.

The blow sent Joanne's head snapping to the side, and a line of blood trickled from the corner of her mouth.

She turned back, saying, "Justin, please, let me explain-"

Justin let out a cold laugh. "Sure. I'll give you one chance. Go ahead. Explain why the hell you're here with Ewan."

Joanne's brain was working

over inning a mile a minute

For a split second, it felt I

second, it fent like th

blood in her veins had stopped cold.

"You're still pretending? Go on, keep the act going Joanne, with acting skills like yours, you really could've made a killing on stage. I gave you my trust and treated you like my best friend But to you? I was just a stepping stone. I never imagined you'd be this manipulative and cruel!" Justin sneered.

Jonah hurried over to Hailey and pulled her into his arms.

"Hailey, are you hurt?" he asked worriedly.

Hailey shook her head and replied, "I'm fine. Don't worry about me."

Jonah then placed his hand on her belly. "Is the baby okay?"

Hailey smiled as she said, "We're both fine."

Jonah looked a little regretful. "I never should've agreed to this. I never should've played along with you."

"Played along?" Those two words hit Ewan and Joanne like a slap in the face.

They both turned to Hailey and asked, "Play along? What's that supposed to mean?"

Hailey let out a cold chuckle.

"It's exactly what it sounds like.

Jonah and I were putting on a show the whole time just to trick you into showing your true colours

Ewan and Joanne's expressions changed as they realized what she meant.
