Crises in Love novel Chapter 105

I was afraid he would continue sifting through my belongings, but he didn’t. Instead, he quietly withdrew from my room.

I opened my eyes at the moment the bedroom door closed, my heart hammering in my chest. I placed a hand over my frantic heartbeat, breathing a sigh of relief. His footsteps sounded like he was going downstairs.

Hastily, I reached for my phone, scrolled through it, and deleted anything that might raise suspicion. After all this, I was close to collapsing. I couldn’t afford to slip up now; it would undo everything.

I opened the hidden surveillance app on my phone. Downstairs, Zora poured a glass of wine and handed it to Jaylan. He took it without a word and sipped it.

Zora stood carefully at his side, looking like she wanted to say something. Jaylan gestured for her to follow him upstairs.

This action startled me. Had he discovered the surveillance? Why else would he silence Zora? It was clear he was on guard. I quickly switched to another camera angle. Jaylan walked into the study first, with Zora trailing behind. Before entering the study, she glanced around the hallways, then followed Jaylan in.

Inside the study, Jaylan walked straight to the couch and sat down, crossing his legs on the coffee table. He looked at Zora with impatience and contempt. “Speak.”

“Don’t you think Aaliyah has been going out too frequently lately?” Zora immediately brought me into the conversation, “I doubt there’s anything wrong with her health. Otherwise, why would she be out all the time?”

I muttered a curse under my breath. It was Zora who had been going out frequently, not me.

But her words served as a warning: I had to be more careful.

Just then, a surprising scene appeared on my phone’s screen. A figure moved stealthily into the camera’s view, inching towards the study. I realized why Jaylan had signaled Zora to go upstairs.

He was preventing eavesdropping. It was clear he was being cautious. I relaxed a bit since he hadn’t discovered the other set of cameras inside the house.

I had to thank Logan for his expert installation. His cameras were really hard to spot.

Back in the study, Jaylan remained silent, sipping his wine as Zora waited for his response.
