Chapter 84
- "Are you madat me?" Zainah softly asked Phoenix as they both sat inside a limousine that belonged to the young man. No one could hear their conversation due to the divider between the driver's compartment and the back of the car. Phoenix didn't immediately respond to Zainah's question; instead, he took a sip from the shot glass he held before speaking.
- "No," Phoenix finally replied, turning his gaze to Zainah, who had been looking at him all this time. Their eyes met again, and he continued, "But I'm grateful that I arrived on time..."
- Zainah nodded, understanding what Phoenix meant. She knew that his timely intervention at the hideout prevented the situation from escalating further. If he hadn't stepped in, the confrontation between Maeve and Iliana could have turned into something far more serious.
