Chapter 612:
“Of course!” Verena nodded.
“Good, Miss Reed; it’s great that you think that way,” Kylee replied with a smile. She reached for her new phone and then showed the screen to Verena.
“What’s this?” Verena asked.
Her calm expression changed the moment her eyes landed on the screen. Her face blanched as realization struck, and she looked at Kylee in shock.
Damn it! This woman still had a backup of that video!
Kylee put her phone away, her grin almost playful. “Oh, I forgot to mention. I keep several backups. So, even though the cloud drive was wiped clean, I still have that video.”

Just then, the sudden chime of the doorbell pulled her from her focus. Curious, Belinda set down her tablet and walked to the door. When she opened it, she froze.
There stood Lucas, drenched to the bone, rainwater dripping from his clothes and hair.
Lucas stood there, utterly disheveled. His entire body was soaked, rainwater dripping from his clothes, and a noticeable bump swelled on his forehead.
