In the same fluid motion, Victor seized Glenn’s arms, twisted them behind his back, and slammed him into submission. The tables had turned in an instant. Before Glenn could even process it, he was the one restrained, completely at Victor’s mercy.
Victor smiled. "Glenn, I have to admit, I admire you. You're willing to go to great lengths for Evangeline. But what you might not know is that I've had someone watching her for a very long time. If I didn't see Tessa by today, there was only one possible outcome for Evangeline: death."
His voice was as cold as ice. Glenn looked into his dark, menacing eyes, and his heart hammered against his ribs. Fortunately, he had anticipated this. With Finn by her side, nothing could go wrong…
Just then, a phone buzzed nearby. The bodyguard closest to Victor answered it, and his expression immediately turned grim. He hurried over and whispered something in Victor's ear.
Whatever he said, it made Victor's face darken. "Is it confirmed?" Victor asked, his voice low and dangerous.
The bodyguard nodded. "He saw it with his own eyes."
Victor was silent for a few seconds before releasing his grip on Glenn. His expression was a chilling mix of menace, bloodlust, and a flicker of some unreadable, twisted amusement.
Glenn’s stomach dropped. A terrible premonition washed over him.
"Evangeline is dead," Victor stated calmly.
The words hit Glenn like a physical blow. He froze, a roaring sound filling his ears as he stood rooted to the spot. How could this be? She had his bodyguards, she had Finn—how could anything have happened? Was Victor lying?
