With a cold look, Caleb took out his phone and played a video for me.
It was surveillance footage of the night I secretly took photos of the plan in Calebâs hotel room.
My mind went completely blank.
The evidence was irrefutable.
Caleb knew everything.
Oh, God! What should I do? How could I find a reasonable explanation for this?
I was so nervous that my mind went completely blank, but Caleb wasnât done with me.
He approached me step by step, asking in a low voice,
âDebra, tell me.
Who sent you?â
His expression was ice-cold.
âWho else wants Roz Town? Tell me!â
I couldnât give Gale away, so I could only keep silent.
âYou donât want to tell me, is that it?â
Caleb looked at me icily, as though he had expected that Iâd keep my mouth shut.
Then he pointed downstairs and said, âLook.
â
I followed the direction in which he pointed and saw the getaway car
Harlan had arranged for us.
My eyes went as wide as saucers.
Harlan and Elena were already in the car!
We had agreed to meet tonight.
As soon as I got out of here and met up with them, weâd skip town immediately.
The plan had went smoothly up until the last step.
We were only one step away from succeeding.
