Chapter 43 Demure

On Saturday, Jade Whitaker arrived at the designated location as promised. She had received a text with the details, and it led her to a quiet, dimly lit movie theater. 

The atmosphere was unusually empty, adding an air of mystery that made her both uneasy and intrigued. 

Jade glanced around, checking her phone one last time to confirm she was in the right place. She'd barely waited five minutes when a familiar figure approached her.

As he came closer, Jade felt a strange chill run down her spine. She instantly recognized him—the infamous, young college student everyone on the globe had been talking about. 

Just days earlier, a video of him had gone viral, capturing him in some controversial moment that had quickly spread across social media. 

His face had been plastered all over the internet for days, and despite not knowing him personally, she couldn't ignore the sheer curiosity his presence seemed to provoke.
