Whitney froze mid-told, herbunds clutching a blouse as Westley’s enraged voice blared through the phone.

“Mr. Howard Senior personally cto call off the engagement! What the hell did you do to make him so angry?

Do you realize what this means? Without the marriage, the spencer family is finished! You're trying to minus,

aren't you, you ungrateful bral

Whitney could almost see Westley’s face, red with sage, as he paced hack and faith in his office.

When the line finally quieted, she jepbedicalmly, “tcan’t. I'm leaving for a business trip. We'll talk about this

when I'm back

“A business trip? Are you insane? Do you think your job is more important than saving this family?”

Whitney didn’t bother responding. She ended the call and tossed her phone onto the bed.

As she drove to the office, her mind chumed. Why did Elijab call off the engagement?

Herthoughts dufted back to his parting words: “If you don’t want to come, don’t make excuses. Just tell me.”

Had he anticipated this? Did he already know she had no intention of marrying Damian?

Ared light forced her to slow down. Her fingers tapped restlessly on the steering wheel.

The engagement had been her biggest obstacle. With it dissolved, she finally had her treedom. Did she still need

“Hop in. We're taking my car,” Amy said, gesturing to the passenger seat of her sleek BMW

Whitney secured her own car and climbed in “How long will we be in Riverport?”

“past a day,” Amy replied, pulling out of the lot.

As they hit the highway, Whitney sent Yvette a quick text letting her how she’d be away.

They stopped at a quiet rest area a few hours into the drive.

“I need the restroom,” Amy said, parking the car.

Whatney replied, unbuckling ber saratbelt.

The restroom was nearly deserted-there were no lines and no noise. As Whitney entered, she heard the sound of

Stepping outside, a sudden movement caught her off guard

A cloth pressed against her nose and mouth. The scent was sharp, chemical, and over powering.

A black sedan pulled into the lot, its windows tinted. The driver scanned the area, noting Amy's BMW still packed
