Chapter 22

Jenny POV:

I walked into my cozy bedroom, the soft glow of the lamp casting a warm ambiance. I held the file Alex had given me, feeling a sense of closure as I tossed it into the trash can. I struck a match, watching as the flames consumed the paper, the scent of burning ink filling the air.

I sat down on the bed, my mind racing with thoughts of what to do next. I decided to help my dad in his restaurant, which meant traveling to Flakes town tomorrow. I stood up, my feet sinking into the plush carpet as I began packing my clothes and essentials.

"Sorry, Tasha," I whispered, knowing my cat would be staying behind. "You'll be staying here alone."

Alex POV:

Leo entered my office, his footsteps quiet on the marble floor. "Boss, I have a report on Mr. Rugard's business," he said, handing me a file.
