His Love Is Not Visible Chapter 25
When Vanessa came to my office, I had just finished a meeting.
The receptionist told me a Ms. Hale was waiting.
I went into the conference room and saw her sitting by the window.
She wore an off-white coat, her makeup immaculate, but her face was pale.
“Laura.”
She spoke first.
“We need to talk.”
I sat down across from her.
“You have ten minutes.”
She gave a faint smile.
“You’re busy.”
“After the promotion, yes. Busier.”
I glanced at my watch.
“Nine minutes.”
Her smile vanished.
“Garrett cut me off because of that phone call.”
I was only surprised she had come to tell me this herself.
“Then you should be talking to Garrett.”
“I came to talk to you because I want to know what you’re trying to do.”
“I’m not trying to do anything.”
She frowned.
“You gave him the call record, didn’t you? To make him hate me?”
“He sent the screenshot to me.”
I took out my phone and placed it on the table, showing our conversation.
There were no accusations in the message thread. Only me, telling him not to trade truth for reconciliation.
Vanessa said nothing after reading it.
I took my phone back.
“When those hotel photos surfaced, Garrett decided I was behind them without ever really asking me.”
