Victoria gave her cell phone to Hunter.Hunter examined the message on Victoria's phone and was surprised by its contents."Who would send you a message like this?"Victoria was clueless. "I have no idea. But only three people knew about my secret. I don't think it's about my identity as Vic. It must be about something the real Victoria had in the past.""Maybe it's related to the accident she had last year," Hunter suggested."Yes, that could be it. So, help me track down the sender." "I'll extract the data from your phone and try to find the source. Once I have some information, I'll let you know."Victoria gave a nod of understanding.

"DON'T TOUCH ME AS YOU PLEASE."Her grip tightened on the woman's hand, making her flinch. "Ow!" She quickly pulled away and shot Victoria a questioning look.She thought to herself, 'I may be afraid of them, but that doesn't mean they can control me,' as she tried to appear strong.As a result, Britney and Samantha, the two women, burst into laughter."This is what happens when you don't train your dog properly at the shelter," Samantha said, rubbing her sore wrist.“She knew how to bite back,” Britney added. She leaned closer at Victoria, who’s much taller than her. Despite this, Victoria's expression made her seem superior. "Do you think you're all that just because you're a little famous?

I can't seem to recall any of you," Victoria replied.Samantha chimed in, "That's a shame! We were so close back in college. You used to do whatever we said. You

Zoe got out of the car. She was just about to close the door when..."Oh, and one more thing," Margaux said."Yes?"Margaux looked at Zoe's legs and smirked.
