Chapter 8X
Jaden listened to the busy tone on the other end of the line and seethed with rage. He redialed Alexandra’s number, but all he got was the same busy tone.
“Alexandra“” he growled through clenched teeth and hurled his phone to the ground.”
Just moments ago, thinking everything was nearly settled, he had gone to last night’s hotel suite. When he opened the door, he found only Mr. Cassey tied to a chair with a rag in his mouth.
Mr. Cassey’s body was covered in bruises, clear evidence of a beating. Alexandra, who should have been in the room, was nowhere to be founds
Jaden rushed forward and untied Mr. Cassey.
1 don’t believe this, your caregiver isn’t mute!” Cassey spat, slapped Jaden in the face.
Cassey continued, “Your caregiver has accomplices! They beat me up and then they ”
Mr. Cassey paused here. Jaden followed his line of sight and found that Mr. Cassey’s clothes had been stripped off at some point. Cassey hastily grabbed a hotel blanket to cover himself and kicked Jaden fiercely. “Forget about Cecilia’s favor, it’s ruined! Your family may be powerful, but the entertainment world isn’t your playground!”
*I can make Cecilia pay for what she has done in the future!” Without waiting for Jaden to respond, Cassey stormed out.
Jaden’s face darkened as he phoned his assistant, “Check the surveillance footage, tell me what really happened here last night.
The assistants panicked voice came over the line, “Mr. Philemon, Cecilia is trending, this is huge. Check your phone now!”
Confused, Jaden opened social media to find Cecilia’s name at the top of every chart.
The first clip that played was the recorded deal between Cecilia and Mr. Cassey. In that moment, Jaden felt his heart stop and forgot how to breathe
He was about to order an emergency PR takedown when a new
w post from
from an anonymous account dropped fresh evidence.
It claimed that Cecilia was a fraud and that the real Masked Diva was someone else entirely.
The internet exploded again as Masked Diva fans flooded Cecilia’s social media demanding answers. Jaden called his assistant back, voice icy, “Find out who did this, who released it!”
“Sir, I suspect it was Miss Swann, the assistant stammered !
Jaden exploded, “Excellent. Where is she? Bring her back! I’ll handle her personally this time!”
Trats the problem. Miss Swann is missing, came the reply.
“What? You’re joking? Jaden bellowed.
The assistant on the other end of the phone was sweating with panic, “No, Mr. Philemon, this is true. Miss Swann is missing.”
Jaden hung up the phone and rushed home as quickly as possible.
He hung up and raced home, only to find the vast villa was empty. He searched every corner, no sign of Alexandra
Panic gripped his heart until he noticed a letter on the entryway table in her handwriting.
He opened the letter and read her last words; his face immediately turned pale!!!
