Dawn narrowed her eyes, dark feelings swirling inside. After a long pause, she said quietly, “You really love Austin that much? Then I’ll tell you onest secret.”
Sydney lifted her head. Tears filled her bloodshot eyes.
Dawn raised her chin, stared straight at that worn–down face, and said each word clearly, “Because of you, Austin is going to die.”
Sydney’s eyes shrank hard. Her lips shook nonstop.
“Look at yourself. After all the vicious things you’ve done, you’re still alive–just imprisoned instead. Too bad that when you’re finally out in a few years, Austin won’t be around anymore. And that’ll be your fault.
“He actually had a chance to live. If you hadn’t hurt him so badly back then, he might’ve had a chance!
“It’s you… Sydney, you’ve killed him.”
“Shut up!”
Sydney screamed,pletely losing it. Her tangled hair stuck to her face, making her look unhinged. “You’re lying. That can’t be true. Austin won’t die. He’s strong. How could he…”
Her voice trembled, full of raw fear.
She did hate him, but only because he never loved her back.
Deep down, Sydney had never wanted Austin dead.
She couldn’t ept it.
“How could this be possible?”
Tears slid down Dawn’s face, but her expression stayed cold. “Sit in prison and think about what you’ve done. But when you wor up at night, don’t think about him. Otherwise…
“When you were with him, he treated you well. He even hurt me because of you. Do you think he’lle lookin gone?”
Sydney grabbed her head, ripping at her hair.
Pain crushed what little reason she had left
Dawn watched without emotion. After a long moment, she stood, leaned in, whispered something, then turned and walked away
A woman’s broken scream echoed behind her. She didn’t look back.
She greeted the officers and prepared <i>to </i>leave.

At the door, she ran into someone unexpected.
Dawn had guessed Sydney and Leon were working together, but she didn’t think he’d show up here.
She said tly, “You’ve already got Anna under control. nning another little surprise for me?”
Leon stayed calm, untouched by her anger. “Ms. Porter, you’ve misunderstood.”
“Misunderstood what?”
“I only made a deal with Ms. Peay.”
Cleaning up after her was part of it.
Dawn studied the tall, cold man. He stood there as if nothing around him mattered.
Someone like him actually teamed up with Sydney for Anna. Dawn was speechless.
At least he still had a conscience. He hadn’t harmed Sandra or Dulce.
Otherwise, there’d be no peace between them.
“Sydney is useless to you now. I don’t think you’ll try to get her out. But if you lose your mind and try, I won’t stay out of it.”
It wasn’t a threat–more like a reminder.
Anna was her best friend. Leon should think about that.
His deep eyes rested on her. After a moment, he smiled.
“Ms. Porter, <i>do </i><i>you </i>have some kind of misunderstanding about me?”
“Misunderstanding? <i>Are </i><i>you </i>saying what you did to Anna before wasn’t real?”
“Not fake.” Leon stepped closer, like he wanted peace. “But love isn’t something you judge with logic
“I did promise Sydney some help, like finding her awyer if things went south. But that was only if she hadn’tmitted a crime. Now?”
He shook his head. “Even begging the top people wouldn’t help.”
If it were someone else, Leon could’ve pulled strings easily.
But this time, he was facing the Jacksons, the Osbornes, and the woman in front of him. None was easy
Why waste that effort on Sydney?
Considering Anna and Dawn’s bond, he’d already done enough by not making things worse.
“Good. Since you’re thinking straight, I’ll leave.”
Dawn had barely taken two steps when his calm voice came from behind. “Ms. Porter.”
She stopped, but she didn’t turn around.

A faint smile touched Leon’s lips
“You’ve seen more of the world than Anna, so maybe you understand some of my choices. But I can promise you one thing–my feelings for Anna are real”
