Chapter 6 - I Thought My Right-Hand Man Had Betrayed Me—Until He Showed Me the Evidence That Changed EverythingI confronted Dante.
“Did you work with Victor?”
He didn't react.
“No.”
“Rebecca says you did.”
“Rebecca is lying.”
I pulled my gun.
Dante didn't move.
“You know I'd never betray Ethan.”
“Then prove it.”
He handed me his phone.

Bank transfers.
Photographs.
Everything.

Someone had cloned his phone.
Someone had been using his identity.
Dante looked exhausted.
“Boss, I've been tracking Victor for three months.”
“Why didn't you tell me?”
“Because every person I told ended up dead.”
I lowered the gun.
“Who else knows?”

I recognized him.
My father.
The date was twenty years old.
I felt dizzy.
