Wesley didn’t say a word for a long time. He rubbed his face with his hands as if he were trying to wake up from a nightmare.

“Play it again,” he whispered.

He watched it three more times until his eyes were filled with a cold fury. Cassandra then told him everything else that had happened over the last few weeks.

She told him about the stolen vitamins, the deleted messages, and the constant psychological pressure. Every detail felt like a heavy stone falling onto Wesley’s shoulders.

“Why didn’t you tell me all of this sooner?” Wesley asked.

“Because I wanted you to see her for who she is without me having to prove I wasn’t crazy,” Cassandra said.

Wesley sat down on the sofa and looked completely defeated. “You are right, and I am so sorry.”

Jenna quietly left the room to give them some space. The silence that followed wasn’t empty; it was heavy with the weight of a broken trust.

“I am going to the house to talk to her right now,” Wesley said while standing up.

“If you go back there, don’t just listen to more of her excuses,” Cassandra warned.

“I won’t,” Wesley promised. “Not this time.”
