Alex’s POV“Ohh like what?” I asked, trying to be nonchalant.Elena's eyes sparkled with mischief. "Like cooking dinner together. Or maybe even trying a new recipe."I breathed a sigh of relief, feeling a little silly for my earlier fears. "That sounds great," I said, smiling back at her.As we stepped inside and started rummaging through the kitchen, I couldn't help but feel grateful for this little slice of normalcy.

"So, what do you think? Should we add some garlic or paprika?"I forced a smile, trying to play along. "Uh, yeah. Garlic sounds great."But my heart wasn't in it.

I felt a wave of tears wash over me as I realized that I had been living in a fantasy world, a world built on Alex's lies and deception.I knew I had to get out of there, to get away from Alex and his toxic behavior.

What are you doing here?"Alex slowly turned, a smirk playing on his lips. "You told me to come, remember? You texted me."Daniel’s confusion deepened. "No, I didn’t! I never texted you."I couldn’t help but enjoy the unraveling drama. With a sly smile, I crossed my legs and leaned back. "Wow, Daniel, I’m impressed. You’re truly something.

I decided to take a nap, hoping to clear my head and recharge.As I lay in bed, I couldn't shake off the feeling of doubt that had been lingering in my mind. What was Daniel hiding? And why was he being so secretive?But for now, I pushed those thoughts aside and focused on rest. I slept for a few hours, waking up feeling slightly better.When I walked into the living room, Daniel was sitting on the couch, watching TV. He smiled when he saw me, and I forced a smile back."Hey, how was your day?" he asked, patting the couch next to him.I sat down, trying to act normal. "It was fine.

Elena’s POV I smiled, a plan forming in my mind. "Phila, I need your help. I want you to keep an eye on Daniel's moves, and see if you can find out what he's up to."Phila's eyes widened, intrigued. "You mean, spy on him?"I nodded. "Exactly. I'm about to make a big decision, and I need to be sure of what I'm doing. If Daniel's hiding something, I need to know."Phila grinned mischievously. "I'm on it. I'll dig up everything I can find."I smiled, feeling a sense of relief. "Thanks, Phila. I knew I could count on you."Phila nodded. "Don't worry, Elena. We'll get to the bottom of this.

"What do you think about it?"I shrugged. "I don't know. That's why I'm asking for your opinion."Phila leaned back in her chair, steepling her fingers together. "If I were to advise you, I'd say keep your property to yourself."I raised an eyebrow. "Why?"Phila's expression turned serious. "You can't trust anybody, Elena. Especially when it comes to something you've worked hard for. You know what Uncle Smith tried to do to you. What if Daniel...?"I held up a hand, stopping her. "Daniel would never do that to me. He loves me."Phila's expression softened. "I know he

Alex has escaped from custody."My heart skipped a beat as I felt a surge of fear. "What? How did that happen?""We're not entirely sure yet," Detective James replied. "But we're working on it.
