Chapter 60

• Third POV
• Vanessa was pacing around her room like a lioness in a cage. Her high-heeled shoes clacked violently against the marble tiles, echoing the fury bubbling in her chest. Her phone buzzed relentlessly with calls, messages, email pings, and social media notifications lighting up the screen with no mercy.
• "Leave me the hell alone!" she screamed into the air, gripping her phone tightly before flinging it onto the couch. It bounced twice and landed screen-up, a news headline still glowing.
