I had just landed in New York after my confrontation with Ryan. I knew he believed with all his heart that I was good, that I wasn't involved with this at all. He's too pure for me. I never wanted him to know, but in this world, you've got to look out for yourself. With the Yorks' gone, mama and papa got all of the money that they deserved. And so did the Stevensons.

I don't think my boyfriend will ever forgive me. Well, I guess my ex-boyfriend now. I'll do what I can to get him back on my side, but he has his stupid sister with all her ideas. I've tried to separate them, she's bad for him, but he always insisted that she deserved my respect. I highly doubt that.

Currently, I was in the car, driving to the Stevensons' home. M parents were there and I needed to know how to proceed. It wasn't something I could have talked about with them on the phone as whoever as working to protect the bitch Carolina York was probably tracking all of our phones. Is it Witness Protection? The FBI? I have no idea, mom and dad probably know.

Arriving at my destination, I get out and tell the driver to stay nearby. I might be assigned to do something else in a very short period of time.

I ring the doorbell, one of the maids comes and opens the door for me.

"They're waiting for you in the study miss. Mills." She tells me and leads me there.

When we get there, the maid knocks on the door. "Miss, Master, miss. Alexandra Mills is here to see you."

"Let her in." Comes my mother's voice from the inside.

I enter the room. All of the adults are looking at me with death glares.

Suddenly it hits me. It hits me hard. I revealed private information about our plan. I did it without consulting them. What would they do to me?

I was starting to sweat.

"Sit down Sasha," Mama tells me.

I do as she says.

"Do you know what you have done to us? To this plan?" She questions me. I gulp.

"Yes, but-" I get cut off.

"You revealed to government authorities that we were responsible for the deaths of Rebecca and William York. We've spent a dozen years hiding it. Keeping it quiet. And now, we're all likely going to go to jail."

"I only told Ryan. He's my boyfriend! I love him!"

"You know they bugged him right?"

"Yes," I said looking down. I know what I did was stupid, and I know I can be called a cold-hearted bitch but I really do love Ryan. That part wasn't a lie. I kept things from him, but I've never done anything to hurt him. At least, before it was done. The threats sent to his family were organized by my parents without my knowledge. A while after it happened, hey told me what they had done. It was them telling me that I had to watch out for some of the people that he was associating himself with.

I think I figured out who Blake was in the very beginning. But then he started turning on them, so I doubted my gut. That was my first mistake.

"Why would you say anything"

"I wasn't thinking straight. I'm sorry mama."

"We always figure it out." My mom gives me a hug. I know she loves me but I can also tell she's incredibly disappointed.

Suddenly, the adults all start laughing. It honestly confused me.

"What going on. It's weird seeing old people laughing when they aren't completely drunk."
