Hailey nodded. "Alright."

Without hesitation, Jonah grabbed his car keys and left.

After he was gone, Hailey exited the study, intending to head back to her room.

Just then, Joanne's voice drifted through the air. "Hello, Ms. Hailey."

Startled, Hailey turned around. When she glanced downstairs, she spotted two familiar faces.

Joanne and Justin had arrived.

"How did you get in here?" Hailey asked.

"I used my fingerprint to unlock the door," Justin replied.

Hailey instantly saw through Joanne's scheme. She hadn't expected her to manipulate Justin like this.

"So, Justin, you intentionally called Jonah away just to let Joanne in. If Jonah finds out, your so-called friendship will be over!" Hailey snapped.

Justin hesitated, but Joanne quickly cut him off with a sharp retort.

"Stop twisting things, Hailey!" she snapped. "Justin and I are doing what's best for Jonah. We won't let you destroy his life."

Hailey couldn't help but scoff. "No, Joanne. It's your secret deal with Ewan that's going to destroy him."

Justin froze. "What did you just say? Joanne's working with who?"

"Are you really that clueless? Joanne's already teamed up with Ewan!" Hailey exclaimed.

"That can't be true! Ewan is Jonah's sworn enemy. How could Joanne be working with him?" Justin said, disbelief evident in his voice. "Joanne, explain yourself."

"Justin, don't believe Hailey's lies. She's just trying to sow discord between us," Joanne shot back.

Justin nodded. "Enough, Hailey. You may be a master at manipulation, but I'm not Jonah. I won't fall for it."

Hailey fell silent. It was clear Justin had fully crossed over to the dark side.

Joanne turned to him. "Justin, you need to get to the office. If Jonak arrives and doesn't see you he'll become suspicious Leave this to me have a serious talk with Ms. Hailey."

She was clearly trying to remove Justin from the equation.

Hailey quickly protested, "Justin, don't go! If Joanne wants you out, she's definitely up to something."

"Justin, who do you trust more-me or Hailey?" Joanne pressed.

Justin didn't hesitate. "Of course, I trust you, Joanne. There's no

question about it. Anyway,

all in your hands from here.

With that, he turned and walked away.

"Justin, don't go!" Hailey yelled. "Leaving now is a mistake you'll regret!"

Justin hesitated for a moment but kept going. Soon, he was gone.

Hailey stood frozen, with disappointment written all over her face.

In contrast, Joanne's lips curled into a smug smile. "Save your breath, Hailey Justin and I have known each other for years. Hell aways be on my side.

Hailey returned her gaze. "Tell me, Joanne, what exactly do you want? What's your true purpose for coming here today?"

"Don't be so impatient, Hailey," Joanne replied. "We're still waiting for an old friend to join us."

With that, Joanne clapped her hands.

Moments later, someone stepped inside. It was none other than Ewan.

He smiled knowingly as his eyes locked with Hailey's. "Well, well, Hailey. Looks like we've crossed paths again."

Hailey wasn't the least bit surprised to see Ewan. She had expected him to show up.

Once again, he and Joanne had manipulated Justin to gain access to the house.

"Damn it, Ewan! Why can't you just let me go? You know perfectly well I don't have feelings for you!" Hailey snapped.

Ewan moved in, closing the distance between them. "Hailey, now that you're in my hands, are you sure you want to keep saying things you'll regret?"
