The Dark Side Of Fate Chapter 337

"Where is the flash drive right now?" I asked, and she sighed.

"In our hotel suite, I put it in Leo's bag before we came here. So if they checked my things, they wouldn't find it," She said, and I was elated. That was all the information we needed to nail more people. I hid my excitement so she would finish talking and I could send people to get their stuff.

"Continue," I said, and she nodded.

"My father followed me here, and he was mad but couldn't do anything. That was why I was always in public or with Leo. I had lied to him that Leo won't come to the north. I had messed up his plans because I knew he wanted to plan an attack on your life and make it seem like it was an act of revenge by Leo. He knows Lord Volkov would lose it and attack Leo blindly. I happened on that information the last time I visited him, so I lied to him.

He also knows Leo isn't a pushover and would fight Lord Volkov. Leo and Devin are friends, so they would get into the war they have been trying to create. Leo being here spoiled the plan, and he was mad.

The night Leo caught me, I had learned that day from a friend who was in a society that my father had put a target on my head and they were going to kill me. I could not tell Leo, but I remained with him, waiting for an opportunity to run. The fact that I am almost due did not help the matter either." She said and went to sit on the foot of the bed. That was when I noticed that she had silver bracelets on.

"Who put that on you?" I asked her.

"Leo. I told him I won't run, but he wouldn't have it," she said, and I took out my hairpin to pick the lock on the bracelet.

Taking her hand, I began to pick the lock.

"You know how to do this too?" she asked me, amused while I picked the lock.

"Yes, Leo taught me when I was young. It was the only way I could get out of the house at night so we could hang out," I said, and the bracelet opened.

"I am sorry I ruined your happily ever after with Leo, Tamia. I wish I never went to that damn party," she said, sounding genuinely regretful.

"We all wished we never went to that party, but I believe it was meant to happen because I am where I was meant to be all along," I said, and she nodded, tears streaming down her cheeks.

"I am glad you got your happily ever after, Tamia; you deserve it. I was too jealous of you to be nice to you back then, and I am sorry. I wish I could take it all back. But know that I did not want to come into your home. When my father found out we were fated, he began to scheme. I should have fought back," She said, and I pulled her close to hold her. She broke down completely.

I felt her fear and her anguish. I wished Leo would just try with her. She was a victim like all of us, caught in the web of her father's lies.

As things were, if we did not put an end to Ramsey, it is only a matter of time before he gets to Amanda and kills her. Any man that can order the assassination of his child is cold-hearted. When we catch the bastard, there is no point in being merciful. He did not deserve it at all.

I left Amanda in the room and sent Kappa Wilson to Leo's hotel to get their stuff. I also asked two female staff to cater to Amanda's needs. The woman had been through enough, and the truth was, if she had not come into our lives, I would not be with Sylvester now. I was grateful for how things turned out; it was time for peace.
