Shadows of Destiny

The call did not take long.

I instructed Wilson to hurry up and get back to me.

After the call, Ramsey continued to speak.

“Amanda informed the King of the development with Leo the night she returned from the party.

She feared he would dump her, but the guy had a bright idea of using the mate bond for themselves and their cause.

Unfortunately, Leo wasn’t as stupid as they hoped he would be.

She never won his heart, so she never got to control him, but she helped her boyfriend cause damage,” Ramsey said, and I felt foolish.

“Why will she set you up, and why did Annika not know she was the mastermind? Your niece named you,” I said, and he laughed.

“Amanda never forgave me for what happened to her mother.

But I had to kill that bitch because she was the one that got me in trouble with Maurice Volkov, both her and Annika’s mother.

I guess the two decided to get revenge for their mothers.

Annika is a fool for Amanda and would do anything her cousin says.

To her, everything Amanda does is for the greater good.

I allowed it simply because it was beneficial to me.

By now, you must have established my character.

There is nothing to hide,” He said, and I was speechless.

I was also worried that Ramsey was right about Amanda cleaning her mess where Annika was concerned.

“What about the threats and the targets? The gun assassination?” Leo asked, sounding confused, and the man began to laugh.

“None of you would be alive if we could do all that.

Amanda controlled the information that would be in circulation.

She was smart like that.

Once you hear the same thing from two to three people, then it is true.

I can never put a target on my daughter’s back.

During the game, I sat in your booth with you.

Did I behave in any suspicious way? She told you what she wanted you to believe, and she pretended all through.

I won’t blame any of you.

Amanda is smooth like that,” he said, and I was stunned.

“What about her visits to your house?” Leo asked, and he sighed.

“She did not visit me; she was visiting him.
