Daniel clenched his fists as he waited impatiently for the elevator doors to open. About two hours ago, Diya had called him, saying she would drive Anastasia home. But everything shifted when she sent another message saying, she and Anastasia were following Bella.
He hadn't thought much of it at first, but then Diya called again, her voice filled with anxiety as she revealed their location, The Grand Empyrean, Ashton Woods' hotel.
Coincidence? It didn't feel like one. Just earlier, Ashton had warned him about Anastasia, and now, she was at his hotel, tailing Bella.
The sound of the elevator snapped Daniel out of his racing thoughts. When the doors finally slid open, his eyes widened. Bella stood there, with Anastasia leaning heavily on her, her hand draped around Bella's neck for support.
"What happened?" he demanded, rushing toward them. He carefully took Anastasia from Bella's grip, his worry turning to frustration when Bella remained silent.
