Chapter 80Eleanor ended the call immediately. She slowly sat down on the chair, still unable to believe what she had just heard. Had Dominic really gone back to Camilla? She had been calling him for the past few days, but he hadn't picked up any of her calls, and now she had heard Camilla's voice answer his phone. The thought made her chest tighten. She didn't know what was going on between them, but she couldn't deny how much it hurt. After everything that had happened, she never expected Dominic to return to Camilla. She wiped the tears gathering in her eyes and took a deep breath. Maybe she needed to get away from everything for a while and clear her head. She decided to go for the blind date after all. Perhaps meeting someone new would help her think straight and figure out what she wanted to do next.By 1:30 p.m., Eleanor was already on her way to the Kingsley Hotel. She wasn't excited about the blind date, but staying alone in her office and thinking about Dominic was only ma

Chapter 82Dominic didn't speak for several seconds. The words seemed to hang heavily in the room, and even Camilla could tell from his expression that whatever Jeff had discovered was serious."Who?" Dominic asked again, his voice lower this time.Jeff hesitated. "I don't want to say it over the phone, sir. You need to see the footage yourself."Dominic clenched his jaw. "Send it to my phone.""I already did."Dominic quickly ended the call and opened the video. Camilla moved closer, while Eleanor remained a few steps behind them."What did he find?" Eleanor asked.Dominic didn't answer. He pressed play.The footage showed the corridor outside the archive. A man in dark clothes walked into the building, followed several minutes later by another person.The second person was wearing a hood, making it difficult to see their face.Camilla leaned closer to the screen."Can you make it clearer?"Dominic zoomed in.The person turned slightly, and a familiar bracelet became visible around t

Chapter 84For a few seconds, nobody moved. The sound of the gunshot echoed through the warehouse, followed by complete silence."Mom!" Camilla screamed."Stay down!" Dominic shouted.He quickly pulled Camilla to the ground while Eleanor dragged Mrs. Bridget behind the crates. Everyone remained still, listening for another shot."Is anyone hurt?" Dominic asked."I'm fine," Eleanor whispered."Mom?" Camilla asked."I'm here," Mrs. Bridget replied, her voice trembling.Camilla looked around, trying to see through the darkness."What happened to Raymond?" There was no answer.Dominic slowly raised his head and looked toward the stairs."He disappeared."A faint light suddenly appeared from the other side of the warehouse. Someone had switched on a small emergency lamp.Raymond was gone. The metal door at the back of the warehouse was swinging slightly."He escaped," Dominic said.Camilla immediately stood up. "We have to go after him.""No," Dominic said firmly."But he knows the truth!"

Chapter 86The car became quiet after Dominic's last words. Camilla kept staring at him, waiting for an explanation, but he refused to meet her eyes."Dominic," she finally said, "what happened the night my parents died?"He remained silent."Look at me."Dominic slowly turned toward her."I need you to tell me the truth.""I will.""When?""When I know you're ready to hear it."Camilla laughed bitterly. "After everything I've heard today, you still think I can't handle the truth?""It's not about whether you can handle it.""Then what is it?" Dominic sighed."It's about what the truth will do to you."Camilla shook her head. "You don't get to decide that for me."Before Dominic could answer, her grandfather suddenly spoke from the back seat."He's right."Everyone turned toward him.The old man looked exhausted, but his voice was clear."Camilla, there are things you don't know about your father.""What things?"Her grandfather closed his eyes."Your father wasn't killed because of B

Chapter 88Camilla stared at Sebastian. The fear on his face was something she had never seen before."Why are you afraid of Raymond?" she asked.Sebastian didn't answer. Another loud bang came from downstairs."Camilla!" Raymond called again. "I know you're in the house!"Dominic moved toward the door and quietly locked it."Nobody makes a sound."Camilla held the wooden box against her chest."But why is Raymond here?"Dominic glanced at Sebastian."Ask him." Sebastian shook his head."Now isn't the time.""Then when is?" Dominic asked. "You've been playing games with us from the beginning."Sebastian looked toward the window."We need to get out through there."Camilla stared at him."You want us to escape with you?""I want to stay alive."Before Dominic could respond, the door shook violently.Raymond was trying to force it open."Open this door!"Camilla stepped backward."What does he want?"Sebastian looked at the box."That."Camilla tightened her grip."What is inside?""The
