Shera eagerly awaited the moment when the tracker on Millie would be revealed. She believed that once her deceptive ways were exposed, no one would question her own innocence.
Shera passed the phone to Trenton and explained, “My phone’s acting up. I received a bunch of prank calls right after I turned it on. I had to switch it off to stop the calls. If we want to check the tracker, I’ll have to turn it back on.”
A series of prank calls?
Hearing this, Millie furrowed her brow.
“I still need to turn it on and investigate,” Trenton replied cautiously.
He powered on Shera’s phone, and as soon as it came to life, the device started ringing incessantly. It was the doing of Call Again, which had been activated by Millie.
Millie sensed the allure of “Call Again,” and although she wanted to burst into laughter, she had to cough to stifle it.
Marcus, looking concerned, asked, “Are you not feeling well? Do you have a cold?”
Millie struggled to contain her amusement and hastily shook her head.
“No, I’m perfectly fine.”
Trenton, meanwhile, examined the software on Shera’s phone, frowning as he glanced at Marcus.
“The phone seems to be working fine.”

Shera quickly said, “It must be on Millie’s phone. Check her phone right away.”
Trenton, however, seemed unperturbed by her insistence and instead glanced at her bag.
“May I see your bag, please?”
“Why don’t you believe me? It has to be with Millie.”
Shera handed her bag over to Trenton, allowing him to inspect it.
Trenton carefully examined the bag, discovering an array of exquisite cosmetics inside, except a tracker.
He looked up at Marcus for guidance, but Marcus was certain it was Shera’s doing.
Trenton continued searching and found a black square object at the bottom.
His eyes sharpened as he retrieved the object.
“Mr. Thomas, I’ve found it. This is it.”
Shera was bewildered. It couldn’t be hers. She swiftly tried to clarify.
