Vanessa's question makes me rise to my feet with a heavy sigh before I can respond.

"You know how manipulative Carmella can be," she adds.

"Yes, I'm aware of that but the part about her ex-husband is the one thing that I don't doubt. I remember how paranoid she seemed before she left town. She didn't even take care of herself. Maybe that's how scared she was."

"And where's he now?"

"She refused to tell me but wants security around her."

"Do you feel bad for her?"

"In that aspect, yes. She suffered a lot during her marriage and I don't wish that on anyone, not even her."

She nods, her expression still doubtful. "I don't know whether it's true or not, but I hope you know what you're doing."

"It doesn't matter. All I care about is keeping the truth hidden. Now, let's talk about you and Carmella. She might send you more messages like these."

She rolls her eyes. "You mean when you fuck her?"

I clench my jaw and fist, feeling awful. "It doesn't necessarily have to be that, but what I want you to do is just ignore them. Don't even bother to respond." "I don't intend on doing that."

I nod, holding my breath for a certain question. "Are we good now?"

She pouts, looking all the way to the other side. "I don't know."

I chuckle in amusement.

"It just really bothered me that you were talking to everyone over the phone except me."

I think about it. "I know. I just couldn't bring myself to do it. I felt awful. That's why I stayed away
