| let out a sharp laugh. “And it worked perfectly! Not only did Blake and Laurel never marry, but Laurel ended up
in jail and died because of what she did to
Audrey.
| stared at passing traffic. “And now she’s back... just as Blake's about to marry Rachel.”
No wonder that woman got mad when | mentioned crashing the wedding. She wants to do it herself.
Richard sighed. ‘If Audrey's back, do we still need to make trouble at the wedding?”
| shook my head. “Rachel isn’t Laurel. She won't be as easy to handle. We're still going. If Audrey can’t handle
Rachel on her own, we'll help.
After a moment, Richard chuckled. “True. If we assist her, maybe she'll finally acknowledge her real father’s
efforts. And if she gets back with Blake, having her direct influence over the Parker fortune would be quite
advantageous.”
‘Just make absolutely sure it’s her, he cautioned. “What if it's just a lookalike?”
I rolled my eyes. “Dad, be serious. Audrey doesn’t have a twin. Who else could possibly look identical to her?”
Audrey's POV
Fresh from our spa treatments, Astrid pulledtoward a designer boutique across the street. This was our first
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtreal shopping trip since I'd ‘returned from the dead” ten months ago, and despite the Victoria incident, | was
determined to enjoy it.
Astrid, dressed in a bold red outfit that turned heads, practically bounced with excitement.
“Evelyn!” She linked her arm through mine. “To celebrate your second life, I'm buying you that bag you used to
love!”
| smiled, shaking my head. “Honestly, | can’t even remember what it looked like.”
It wasn’t a lie. My memories of New York had blurred at the edges - maybe because too much had happened
since | left, or maybe because I'd trained myself to forget the painful parts. Big events and people remained
clear, but the details of my day-to-day life had faded.
Astrid’s laugh echoed through the boutique. “Doesn’t matter if you don’t remember - | do!”
She dashed to the counter to speak with a sales associate, then draggedto view their new collection while
they retrieved the reserved bag from storage.
The sales assistant was mid-description of another bag when a familiar voice floated in from outside.
“Thalia, why are we even at this place? You know | only carry real luxury brands. Since when do | shop at places
like this?”
My body tensed immediately. After all this time, I'd still recognize Olivia Cavendish’s voice anywhere.
“Just browsing, A second later, Thalia’s voice sounded, “Even cheap places like this must have fans somewhere.’
| felt Astrid tense besideas Thalia’s voice got closer. “Look who's wearing red.”
“Well damn, it’s Astrid Wilson.” Olivia approached. “Where’ve you been hiding these days?*
“Last twe saw her, she threw wine all over us because of Audrey’s stupid cat. The smugness in Thalia’s voice
was obvious. “Then poof - vanished.”
“Guess she finally realized who she messed with,” Olivia said. “Tto face reality, Astrid.”
“Your precious Audrey’s been dead almost a year. You ruined our dresses for what? A corpse?” Olivia's voice
grew louder. “What's she gonna do now, climb out of her grave to save you?”
“Turn around, Astrid. Thalia said, “Too scared suddenly? Where's that attitude from the charity gala?”

| could practically feel her eyes burning into my back. And who's your friend? New model?’
“Doesn't matter, Olivia cut in. “Hey, whoever you are run while you can. Wilson's bad luck. One friend was a
vegetable for four years. Only lived after ditching her.”
And her other bestie? Stomach cancer. Six feet under before thirty. Stick with her and you'll be next!”
| laughed. “What if | want to be her friend and keep you both away from her?”
I turned around.
