Chapter 3 - The Secret Behind The Phone

Adrian arrived less than thirty minutes later.
The mansion gates opened.
A black vehicle stopped outside.
Victor watched through the window.
His confidence was gone.
Because Adrian Cross was not just Lena’s brother.
He was the person who knew every secret Victor had tried to bury.
When Adrian entered the dining room, he looked at the broken plate.
Then he looked at Lena.
He did not ask questions.
He already knew.
“You kept protecting him.”
Lena looked away.
“I thought I could fix him.”
Adrian’s expression hardened.
“You cannot fix someone who enjoys hurting you.”
Victor interrupted.
“This is my home.”
Adrian turned slowly.
“No.”
He placed a folder on the table.
“This is the home Lena helped build.”
Victor stared at the folder.
“What is that?”
Adrian smiled coldly.
“Everything you thought nobody knew.”
Victor grabbed the folder.
