“He was wrong,” Freya said coolly. “Ashley was the most likely. But without the strength to fight back and under
constant threat, she stayed put.”
“What happened between them?” Natasha asked, curiosity piqued. She didn’t usually poke around in Brendan's

“I've got something to do. You should head back first,” Freya said calmly.
But Natasha didn’t move. She stayed rooted in place, clinging to Freya like a shadow.
Freya didn’t have tfor this. She turned her focus to the deal between Lawrence and Kristian. But the deeper
she looked, the more she ran into a wall—one she had built herself.
She had once sold the phone system involved, and with it, she'd locked herself out.
