Ryder insisted that she ride with him.

She did not protest and hopped into the vehicle.

Once inside, she all but glued herself to the door.

“Have I met you before?" Ryder suddenly asked.

Camila shook her head. "This is the first time we've met each other." That was a lie. If she remembered correctly, she first met him at school when he was courting Debora.

He did not seem to remember her, though.

Ryder did not know why, but he felt Like he had met Camila before.

He just could not remember when and where.

“Maybe I remember it wrong." In the end, Ryder decided to shrug it off. He should be focusing on how to get back at Isaac.

After dropping Camila off at a hotel, Ryder dispatched two of his men to keep an eye on her.

He then had someone look into whether or not Camila and Isaac's relationship was as she claimed it to be.

Camila entered the hotel room and immediately locked the door behind her. She made sure no one could come in before changing out of her wet clothes and letting them dry in the air conditioning. Afterward, she went to the bathroom to soak in a steaming tub of water. Still, the chill had not left her.

She sneezed in the bathtub.

She did not come out of the bathroom until she began to sweat from the hot water.

Wrapped in a bath towel, she sat on the edge of the bed and waited for her clothes to dry. When she saw a phone on the bedside table, she grabbed it and dialled Forrest's number.

Soon, the call connected.

At the moment, Forrest was drunk again.

As of late, he had been drinking nearly every day.

“Forrest, help me contact Isaac," Camila said.

“Is this Mila?" Forrest asked, his voice slurring. "If you want to see Isaac, call him yourself."

From the other end of the line, Camila heard something pouring.

That was how she found out that Forrest was drinking again.

“Stop drinking," Camila scolded.

“Why would I? Mila, she betrayed me!" He sounded vexed and miserable at the same time.

“Forrest, listen to me. I called you because I only remembered your number. I'm being held captive right now in a hotel. Tell."
