"It's all because of Christine."
"She just had to show up, didn't she? That's when everything changed between us."
Dailey had been standing with his back turned to her, only spinning around upon hearing these words. The look
he cast her way was colder than ever.
"If you could just tell the truth for once, maybe there'd be a chance for us."
"What truth do you wantto tell?" Nelly glanced at his jeans pocket.
"Dai, you're smarter than me. You should know that secretly recording isn't admissible as evidence."
Dailey turned on his heel and left, ignoring Nelly's calls for him to stop.
Nelly, however, didn't seem too bothered.
No matter how much Dailey disliked her, she had no desire to go back to how things were.
As long as he and Christine were over for good.
Gregory waited by the front gate for a while, occasionally glancing at his watch.
Just as he was about to make a call, his phone vibrated.
Seeing the caller ID, he smirked slightly and answered, "Can you make it out?"
"How's Christine?" Dailey asked.
"I don't know."
"You don't know?"

"Yeah."
Dailey didn't feel like thinking too hard at the moment. Lighting a cigarette, his voice was muffled, "Can you just
give it tostraight?" Gregory chuckled, "Sounds like you hit a snag."
Dailey remained silent, blowing smoke rings into the air.
After a few seconds, Gregory spoke up, "I'm at the front gate. Christine's got my wife with her. What could go
wrong?"
"A heads up?" Dailey replied, his tone neither warm nor cold.
"Let's just say | have sgood news for you, brother."
Dailey crushed his cigarette, a flicker of excitement in his voice.
Good news from Gregory usually meant something big.
"Out with it."
"No beating around the bush."
Gregory got straight to the point, "Nelly's got the surveillance footage from that night."
"What?" Dailey was taken aback, but then it clicked.
He remembered the video that "proved" he had "forced" Nelly.
Initially, Nelly was just standing in the hallway, outside his room door.
Bringing him hangover soup, before he dragged her into his room.
Not to mention how he ended up back in his own room after being with Christine. But this hallway footage...
He had checked the surveillance room, and the staff said it was all deleted.
Yet, here was Nelly, holding onto the

Gregory drawled, "Your move, Dai-"
"Don't grossout."
Dailey's mood lightened slightly, relieved he hadn't let Christine down.

"Just callbro."
Gregory scoffed, "I'll skip going in and riling people up today. Waiting on your news."
Dailey: "And keepposted about Christine."
Gregory hung up without another word.
Dailey pocketed his phone and approached Nelly's door.
He saw Abigail holding a bowl of something dark and murky.
"What's this?"
"Medicine Abigail admitted. "Dr.
Smith prescribed it for the lady stabilize her condition. She's
swoode get
bit frail."
Dailey reached out, "I'll take it."
Abigail was puzzled but as a servant, she couldn't ask too many questions.
"If you need anything, I'll be right outside."
Dailey nodded and carried the bowl into the room.
"Abigail, I'm fine. | won't take the medicine."
"I'll dump it then."
Hearing that voice, Nelly immediately sat up from under the covers.
