Audrey's POV
Blake leaned back, satisfaction written all over his face. That smug smile made my heart race, but not in a good
way.
| took a breath and lifted my chin. “Mr. Parker, do | need to remind you again? | am Evelyn Knox, not Audrey
Sinclair.”
| turned slightly toward Adrian. “And | haven't been following your life. | heard about your suicide attempt from
my husband.”
“Did you know Mr. Parker's ex-wife looked like me?” | asked Adrian with a forced smile. “Is that why you
mentioned that joke
before?”

Adrian hesitated briefly before catching on. “Of course.”
He walked over and rested his hand on my shoulder. “I was shocked when | first saw the news about Parker's
suicide attempt. | thought it was because of that Hollywood actress he was engaged to - Laurel Rose.”
“Later | learned he had an ex-wife,” Adrian continued. “I got curious about what kind of woman would drive him
to suicide, so | looked into Audrey Sinclair.”
Without warning, Adrian pinched my nose playfully. | fought the urge to pull away.
“Surprisingly, she looks just like you,” he said. “When | told you about it, | almost showed you her picture, but
with your health issues, seeing your doppelganger had died might've upset you.”
| swallowed my disgust for Adrian’s action and forced a smile. “So that’s how it was. You never share gossip, so |
thought he was your friend.”
| shot Blake a look of contempt. “I was confused why you'd be friends with someone so awful. Having an affair
while his wife was dying, then acting devastated after her death...” | turned away. “I can’t stand men like that.”
Rachel cleared her throat. “Mr. and Mrs. Knox, a lot of what's online about Blake isn’t true. You'll get to know the
real him through working together.”
“What happened with Audrey was complicated. When she died before they could fix things, it hit him hard.
That's why seeing someone who looks like her affected him so much.”
She looked at his knee. “Can you walk? Let's go back so | can treat that.”
Blake laughed coldly. “I already agreed not to report her daughter for stabbing me, and in return, she’d treat my
wound.” His eyes locked onto mine. “Bringing your fiancée won't get you out of our deal, Mrs. Knox. Or should |
report your four-year-old for
assault?”
| bit my lip, meeting his stare. Though he was sitting and | standing, | felt small under his gaze.
“Is your daughter brave, Mrs. Knox?” he asked casually. “Police stations aren't kid-friendly. She'd probably cry
the whole time.”
My fists clenched at my sides. The thought of Emma terrified because of this man’s pettiness made my blood
boil. I'd do anything to protect her, even though she wasn’t biologically mine.
Sold Blake - using his power to control others, to control me.

Rachel touched his arm. “Blake, don’t.” She whispered something in his ear.
His expression hardened immediately. He stood up, cold fury radiating from him.
| have things to do, so Ill let this go for now.” His voice was ice. “But don’t think your acting is that good. Sooner
or later, you'll admit you're Audrey Sinclair.”
Adrian stepped between us.
Blake looked at him with contempt. “Adrian. You'll regret this.” His eyes found mine again. “I don’t know what
happened to the real Evelyn Knox, but you can’t turn Audrey into her. It won't work.”
He turned and walked out. Rachel mumbled a quick goodbye and hurried after him.
The door slammed shut. | collapsed onto the sofa, exhausted. | didn’t want to talk or think. | just wanted peace.
