Chapter 5 - The Person Who Broke Their Alliance

The answer came from my phone.
A message appeared.
From someone I never expected.
Daniel’s business partner.
He had discovered the fraud.
And he wanted out.
The message included copies of emails.
Daniel and Lorraine had been discussing the apartment for months.
Not because they needed a home.
Because they needed an asset.
I watched Daniel read the messages.
His anger changed direction.
“You sent these?”
He looked at Lorraine.
She stepped back.
For the first time, they weren’t united.
They were protecting themselves.
Then Daniel turned toward me.
“Rachel, listen.”
I almost smiled.
Listen.
That was what he always wanted.
Me listening.
Him deciding.
But that version of me was gone.
I looked at my phone.
The recording was still running.
