“Of course! You still haven’t mentioned why you needed to see me,” Samantha replied

“A few days ago, when I went to see Ellora, she told me she wanted to treat you to dinner.
She has yet to properly thank you for the help you offered during that phone call,” Cynthia
began, weaving together the strands of their conversation.
Samantha brashed off the thanks with an indifferent laugh. “There’s no need for
formalities. It was nothing.”

the place where she’s staying. She’s even prepared a teast with her own hands,” Cynthia
retorted, keeping the conversation flowing.
“Where is she staying?” Samantha asked
Cynthia paused, locking eyes with Samantha. ‘You don’t know?”
“Uh.7” Samantha looked genuinely puzzled.
“Didn’t you inform Chyler about it?” Cynthia laid her cards on the table.

Cynthia watched her in silence.
Have w
you misunderstand something, or has someone misled you? Since returning to Nexuria, I
haven’t been in contact with Chyler” Samantha inquired.
“Ms. Tanz, there’s no point in playing damb anymore,” Cynthia responded, her tone
remaining cool.
“I truly have no idea” Samantha’s face was a picture of innocence.

informed Chyler? You’re looking to cause me trouble on purpose?
“Yes,” Cynthia responded, unwilling to waste time bearing around the bush.
Heavers, 1 swear I didn’t do it. Whoever told you this, you’d best stay away from them.
Even if I knew where Ellora was after what happened last time, there’s no way I would’ve
informed Chyler. I have no reason to. I don’t hold any grudges against Ellora,” Samantha
insisted, maintaining her calin throughout.
You might not, with her. However, you do with me. You like Joshua, don’t you?” Cynthia
countered, nearly swayed by Samantha’s acting skills.
Samantha seemed even more confused “How could I possibly like Joshua? If I did, why

“Samantha,” Cynthia cut her off.
“Hm?”
“Right now, it’s just the two of us. There’s no need to pretend. Me being here means I’ve

If Jayleen were as adept as Samantha, the initial incident would have been even more
absurd. Even Cynthia, not one to easily trust others, almost fell for it.
“Say what you need to and speak plainly!” Samantha snapped, her reactions resembling
those of someone wrongfully accused.
“All these incidents: Jayleen’s car accident, the loss of her innocence, the trending
scandals, my assault, the episode with Mitchell in the hotel, and Mor being bought off; you
