Chapter 59

• — George Collins —
• She thought she could get rid of me. She thought that with Alexis and that baby that shouldn’t even exist, she could have a new life, far from our past. I let her believe that for far too long. Claire always had that arrogant confidence, as if she controlled her own destiny, but she forgot one crucial thing: I never lose. I never let things slip out of my control.
• I spent weeks planning what I would do. At first, I just watched from afar, plotting, waiting for the right moment. Every detail had to be perfect, and I knew I couldn’t act impulsively. There was too much at stake. But when I found out she had a medical appointment scheduled and that she’d be going alone, I knew the perfect opportunity had arrived. Alexis wouldn’t be there, and Claire would be vulnerable.
