Chapter 4 Caspian frowned, about to unleash his anger, when his phone rang again-a special ringtone for McKenzie. His icy expression softened instantly. He stood up quickly. "Mackie will be attending the business gala with me tomorrow. "These formal events require a partner who can carry the role with grace." I nodded. "Fine." A memory surfaced vaguely from our first year of marriage, when he took me to his company's annual party. I'd been so nervous that my palms were sweating. He'd held my hand under the table and whispered, "Don't be afraid.

You standing beside me is all I need." the grace The light in his eyes then had been almost too bright to look at. Now, it seemed he was ashamed of me from the inside out. The next morning, when I woke up, Malcolm was gone. I searched everywhere and was about to call the police when my phone showed his location tracker active at the hotel ballroom where the gala was being held. I rushed in. The room was filled with well-dressed guests. There I stood in my old pajamas, like a lost pigeon among swans. Snickers rose from all around. "Look who's here.

Weren't you so proud yesterday, talking about giving him back his freedom, Ms. Langley?" "Look at what she's wearing. Did a cleaning lady wander into the wrong party?"

Rosalie, do you have to see a conspiracy in everything and drive us all insane?" Just then, another video arrived on my phone. In it, raging waves crashed around Malcolm's small figure as he clung desperately to a broken piece of surfboard. No one else was in sight. He was choking on seawater, crying, "Mommy!" "She must have faked this to frame me! You know she has paranoia issues!

She's not well!" McKenzie snatched a dinner knife from a nearby table. "If Rosalie needs me to die to prove my innocence..." she said, tears streaming down her face, her voice filled with despair, "then, I'll do it!" The blade sliced across her wrist. Blood welled up immediately. "Mackie!" Caspian's face went pale. Acting on pure instinct, he shoved me aside and rushed to her, pressing his hand tightly over the wound. I stumbled back from his push, crashing into a tower of champagne glasses behind me. Shards of glass and ice-cold liquid poured down over my head and shoulders. "Rosalie!

"You're not leaving until you apologize," Caspian said, his face icy.
