( Tessa's POV )

I am a strong woman and I won't let anything break me down, not even Jordan. After crying for a while at home, I decided to come to see things for myself and here I am.

I reapplied my makeup and asked the driver to drive me to the party with Zoe who was looking at me with pity. I don't need any pity. Jordan has just trampled upon me and I am going to deal with the idiot, I no longer care if he is the man I love or not.

I am no longer here in the event because of Jordan, he is no longer the reason why I am here. I am here to satisfy my curiosity, I want to see the girl Jordan brought to the party in place of me.

I want to see the person that took my place. I want to see how worthy she is. I want to see who she is and what she is.

That will determine my next line of action.

I ask the driver to drop me off at a little distance away from the entrance and I take bold steps out of the car when it comes to a stop. I didn't wait for Zoe before walking to the back of the hall.

I know my father won't help me, he is mad at me and I am sure he has already disowned me by now.

We traced the car as Tristan suggested but we found it in a bushy area with no one inside. The tracking device is still on the van which shows that they didn't take note of it. They must have decided to change their vehicle on instinct."Shit!" I curse again. I feel like crying right now. I can't imagine life without Lily. I won't forgive myself if anything happens to her.These two innocent people that were kidnapped are suffering for my mistakes. I believe this is my mistake. If I had done the right thing for Lisa by reporting Damien to the authorities, maybe he wouldn't have the guts to be doing this and seeing me as his enemy."Jordan?" Tristan holds me, as I hit the car again, more aggressively. I didn't know when tears begin to spill down my face until I begin to feel the wetness."Let me be", I struggle out of his hold."Let's go, I have a feeling.....", he trai
