The Recording In The Hallway

Elena began keeping careful notes of everything she witnessed.

She wrote down dates, times, visitors, and conversations, storing the pages somewhere Victoria would never search.

One evening, Elena heard Victoria speaking sharply in the upstairs hallway.

Arthur was still away.

Elena used her phone to record the conversation from a distance.

Victoria was speaking to the same unknown man Leo had seen near the garden gate.

Victoria: Once Arthur signs, Leo’s position becomes much easier to control.

The man warned her that Martin Hale was suspicious.

Victoria replied that Elena was becoming a problem too.

Elena’s hand trembled, but she kept recording until the footsteps moved away.
