Ryan....

After returning from the cafe, I went back home. I wasn't able to fetch out any specific details from Caroline. Except when she was busy on her phone, I succeeded in having an eye on her password. While she started passing a flirtatious smirk to the man sitting beside our table, I took that opportunity to grab her phone and enter the password.

The only thing I was able to do within that short moment of time was checking her call logs. I saw the last call was done a few minutes ago probably when she was in the washroom. Something that actually caught my attention was the contact name saved in her phone, 'Traitor.'

Who is that?

I was able to read almost the first five digits of that contact and somehow looking at it felt similar. Known and recognizable.

I could not take the picture as she suddenly turned back to me when the phone slipped away from my hand causing it to hit the floor.

"I'm so sorry....", I quickly picked it up by locking the phone's screen. I passed a fake smile and gave her phone back to her.
"Oh, no issues, Ryan. I know you can give me thousands of other phones like this.....", she smirked back at me.

In your dreams. Gold digger! That's what you are.

"Of course.....", I passed a plastered smile.
I called the waiter and he immediately came to our table passing the bill to me.

"Mam, can I have a picture with you?", he asked politely to Caroline. "I'm busy right now, get lost!", she snapped back at him in a very rude tone. He felt disheartened not because she didn't click a picture with him but with the tone she said to him.

Disrespectful.
Like always.

"Hey, I will give feedback. Give me a pen....", I asked the waiter who handed me a pen. I think he was new there and they took the customer's feedback and submitted it to the manager. We and Lizz used to come here so I know this.

I rated him 5/5 and also added a smiley on the paper while I quickly took advantage of the situation and grabbed a tissue paper and wrote the number I kept on recognising. Meanwhile Caroline was busy giving her lipstick a touch up. I put the tissue inside my pocket and paid the bill smiling back at the waiter.

When we were out of the cafe, Caroline informed me that her driver will pick her up as she has some important works to look over. Thank God. I felt relieved in fact I wasn't even planning to drop her at all.

I needed to see Lizz.

I was driving back to our home while multiple thoughts were going inside my head, 'Who is this Traitor?'

Focus, Ryan. Focus.

I stopped the car on the empty side of the road banging my hand on the steering wheel. I rested my head on it and groaned in frustration. "Traitor means the person who betrays someone. Someone who leaks the secret", and I kept muttering to myself.

Means she was talking to someone who is a traitor.... and the only name which crossed my mind was.... Peter. She was talking to Peter.

I immediately took out my phone and the tissue paper from my other pocket and dialled that five digits on my phone.
The name flashed from my contact list and I got some more pieces of the puzzle. Peter. Bloody hell, it's Peter. He is a traitor. And he is leaking information to Caroline.

But if I was there then why was Caroline contacting Peter? The image of Peter flashed in my mind. I have noticed him talking over the phone call in the morning. He was talking to her about my schedule and then suddenly after that Caroline appeared. It was pre-planned but Lizz came out of nowhere. Caroline was there for something more but after Lizz came, her plan took a different turn which somehow satisfied her intentions as well.
