extortion.”
Shock races through me as Kaidan gives my shoulder a final squeeze and steps toward them with his hands raised, palms out.
My mouth hangs open as the FBI agents cuff Kaidan. My brain struggles to make sense of all of this as they lead him outside to their unmarked car.
I try to follow, but Charles steps in front of me.
“What happened?” My voice cracks. “Why did they just arrest him? Money laundering… embezzlement…?”
Charles looks at me with sympathy. “When Mr. Stone has the chance, I'm certain he'll explain everything.”
I look around Charles at the car as it pulls away, Kaidan cuffed in the back seat.
“I need to go. Where's my car?”
Charles won't move. He furrows his brow, clearly worried. “No talking to the tabloids about this, Ms. Wade.”
I meet his eyes, my emotions chaotically swirling within me. I feel like I'm going to lose it any second. “I won't tell anyone.”
He hesitates, assessing me to decide whether or not to let me go. Then he steps out of my way. “Your car is parked to the side of the house.”
I fly out the door without a word. I hurry across the brick drive, past the quietly gurgling fountain, to find my Mercedes.
It looks brand new. Not a scratch on it. My hand is shaking so hard, it takes me two tries to hit the right button on my remote to unlock the door.
I slide into the driver's seat and slam the door shut. I'm gripping the steering wheel, hard, trying not to lose it. But darkness is closing in, and it feels like a huge boulder is crushing my chest.
I panic for a few minutes, but then I get my breath under control and wipe the tears out of my eyes.
I have the diamond.
The drug dealers have my brother.
I don't know what the fuck just happened with Kaidan, but I have to forget about it for now. There's only one thing I can control.
I need to get this diamond to my lawyer and get my money back before…
Before they kill Rowan.
