Even with her hands bound, Lisa's face was plastered with a smug grin.
"Chloe, do you have the guts to show him your phone? To lay bare your messy past in front of Connor?"
Chloe's lips curled into a cool, confident smile. "Why shouldn't I?"
With that, she handed her phone straight to Connor.
His eyes scanned the photos one by one until he landed on a video.
The audio was crystal clear.
In the video, Chloe was cradled in a man's arms, clearly tipsy and flushed.
She flirted with the guy holding her, "What's your name? You're really handsome..."
Connor remembered that day vividly.
He had been at the Diamond Club.
In the elevator, he bumped into a stunning woman.
Her face was unforgettable.
It was the same face he hadn't seen in fifteen years, now all grown up.
No wonder he recognized her right away.
Chloe had grown up just as he'd imagined, her baby face now a graceful oval. When she was little, Connor had snapped a photo of her on the hospital lawn.
He'd kept that picture in plain view for years, glancing at it often.
It was like she had never left his life.
While gazing at that photo, he often wondered,
What would she look like all grown up?
Would he even recognize her if they crossed paths again?
Connor never expected to spot her instantly and be so sure.
When the elevator doors closed, his heart pounded like a drum.
He stood frozen, as if in a dream that might shatter at any moment.
The nervous excitement made him hold his breath.
Not until the elevator reached her floor did Chloe step out.
Only then did he take a deep breath, regaining his composure.
He quickly followed her out.
He later found out where her private room was.
Turns out, she was there to drown her sorrows.

But soon enough, she started behaving oddly.

At that point, he was closest to her.
Chloe leaned into him, her hands wandering all over.
Seeing her like that, Connor's eyes turned icy.
He suspected someone had slipped something into her drink.
He later investigated.
The drinks at Diamond Club checked out, and the models were clean.
He figured Chloe must have been drugged before even stepping into the club.
Now, the effects were kicking in.
