The incident where I posted from the wrong account two years ago resurfaced. Some people cursed me out, while others praised Amber, claiming she was not only a talented woman but also beautiful and kind–hearted.
Soon enough, someone in the crowd posted about it online, and immediately everyone
accused me of impersonating S. Even the charity work I had done under the name S was now credited to Amber.
Shane, who witnessed all this, had a complicated look on his face. Even if he didn’t know I was S, he was familiar with my artistic style.
“Abbie, did you really draw all these?” he asked.
Amber’s eyes welled up with tears. “Who else could it be if not me? Haven’t you praised my art in the past?”
“I just think this style seems different from your usual work.”
“Who sticks to one style forever? I can paint many things. You’ll gradually find out with time.” As she spoke, she trailed her fingers down Shane’s chest. She was becoming bolder by the day.
Not wanting to be seen, Shane immediately pushed her hand away. “The auction is about to
start. Let’s head over.”
I was forced to follow them to the auction hall where many big names with a love for art were
in attendance.
The auction was packed with people. Many fans and those in the art scene had come specifically because they saw the online post about S’s identity being uncovered.
As Shane made his way through the crowd, a man brushed past him.
“Sorry,” the man said. His voice was hoarse as if scorched, and his hunched posture obscured
his face.
The moment he lifted his head, a pair of bloodshot, sinister–looking eyes met mine.
I froze. I could feel my heart drop. It was him! The one who killed He was actually here!
