Chapter 245
The woman's presence filled the room with an unsettling aura, her gaze cold and calculating as she regarded Alex with a mixture of curiosity and amusement. There was something unnerving about her demeanor, a sense of power and control that sent a chill down Alex's spine.
In that moment, Alex realized the extent of the danger he was in. Not only was he trapped between the threat of Grace and Serena's imminent arrival and Jude's ominous departure, but now he also had to contend with the unpredictable presence of this mysterious woman who had already proven herself to be deceitful and manipulative.
With his heart pounding in his chest, Alex knew that he would need to tread carefully if he had any hope of navigating this treacherous situation. In the face of such overwhelming odds, he could only hope that his wits and cunning would be enough to see him through the storm that was about to descend upon him.
