"They let go of me just like that. And do you know what they said?" She muttered, her eyes fixed intently on her man.
"Her father must be waiting for her," she disclosed, hoping those words might stir some change in his expression.
But she was wrong.
Kaden didn't react at all.
"I know," he said suddenly, and that was enough to send a jolt through Sherlyn.
A strange feeling twisted in her gut—something wasn't right. What had happened to her didn't feel like a random incident. It felt planned.
As if she had been kidnapped for a reason.
Kaden had never wanted to keep anything from Sherlyn. But now, the truth hovered between them like a blade ready to drop. Because whatever had happened… her father had been part of it too.
"Listen to me, Sherlyn. There's something you need to know," Kaden said, his voice low but steady. He had made up his mind—it was time to confess everything.
