Yet, at that moment, she knew following Fernando was her only hope for safety.

After what seemed like an eternity, they arrived at a deserted, isolated hotel.

Fernando checked them in and led Rose upstairs, where he stationed two men outside the room before closing the door.

âStay put and behave, Rose,â Fernando said calmly, his gaze fixed on her seated figure.

âCooperate with our testimony in two days, and I promise youâll live comfortably for the rest of your life.

Roseâs mind was a whirlwind.

Even after calming herself, the gruesome details of Hessâ death replayed in her mind.

Fear gnawed at her.

The prospect of being labeled a murderer terrified her.

Fernandoâs voice cut through her thoughts.

âElizabeth shot Leo.

Heâs probably not going to make it.

And siding with her wonât guarantee a pleasant future either.

Rose narrowed her eyes, clenching her fists until they trembled.

After a tense moment, she slowly relaxed her grip and turned to face him.

Fernando nodded silently, exiting the room.

Outside, he contacted Matthew immediately.

âRose is settled and compliant.

Fernando listened attentively, then replied in a resolute tone, âYes sir! Iâll get right on it.

âCouple Found Dead in Nightclub, Initial Findings Suggest Drug Overdose, Deceased Female Identified as Rose.

Startled awake by the notification, Stellaâs sleep vanished instantly.

Matthew stirred beside her, briefly glancing at the news with a detached expression.

âThe press conference is tomorrow, and Leo is still unconscious.

Without Rose, how am I supposed to clear my name?â Stellaâs words tumbled out in a panicked rush.

Despite the warmth of the room, she felt chills creeping down her spine.

Matthew reached out, pulling her into his comforting embrace.

âDonât worry.

Just attend the event as planned.

Stellaâs eyes flickered with doubt as she looked up at him.

Matthew offered her a reassuring smile.

âI have the evidence we need.
