Chapter 10 - The Person Vanessa Was Afraid Of

The mansion doors remained locked.
The person outside didn’t announce themselves.
They didn’t need to.
Vanessa knew.
Her face changed.
“Impossible.”
I watched her.
“You know who that is.”
She didn’t answer.
Then my brother appeared on the security monitor.
But he wasn’t alone.
He was arguing with someone.
Someone older.
Someone who seemed to control him.
Vanessa whispered:
“He wasn’t supposed to come here.”
That was the first honest thing she said.
The plan had changed.
The people who used each other were now turning against each other.
The recording on Elena’s drive revealed more.
My brother wasn’t Vanessa’s partner.
He was her employee.
The entire operation had a bigger architect.
Someone above them.
Then the security camera captured a face.
A person standing outside.
A person I recognized.
