After her pleading attempts failed, Katie resorted to sincerity.

«Mitchel, you have to believe that I really love you and that I would never hurt you. After the wedding, I will do my best to find an antidote for you. I will make you take the medicine first to delay your condition. You must trust me..."

“Katie, stop acting,” Mitchel cut in sharply. «Don't you see it? This wedding never had a groom. "It was just about you."

Confusion flashed in Katie's eyes as she struggled to understand Mitchel's meaning. A wedding without a groom? What did he mean by that?

Mitchel's voice was slow, each word weighed.

«Isn't this the wedding you wanted? I made it come true. Now, it's all over."

Katie's confusion increased. “Mitchel, what do you mean…?”

Mitchel explained with a hint of accusation, "This wedding was designed to take out your old ally, the one you conspired with."

Fear took hold of Katie. «What old ally? What are you talking about?

Mitchel searched his memory. "The one you worked with to cause Raegan's car incident five years ago."

Katie paled and a wave of fear washed over her face. Mitchel knew his involvement. “You mean Loren…” he began, but was quickly silenced. How could he confess? I couldn't do it.

Katie knew Mitchel wouldn't have confronted her without concrete evidence. But even if she had them, she doubted that Lorenzo, after five years, would testify against her. As long as he denied everything, he was safe.

Katie had most of Abel's dirty work done and simply regretted her involvement with Lorenzo. After all, Lorenzo was no petty criminal. He did not undertake tasks for mere money, but for excitement.

Lorenzo demanded that his clients personally explain their reasons to him.

If they seemed convincing, he accepted the assignment. If not, he could even turn around and kill the customer.

Meeting Lorenzo was risky. Luckily, Katie was counting on Davey's connection to the Maxwell family.

After invoking Davey's name, Lorenzo had agreed not to harm Katie, allowing her to tell the story.

Knowing Lorenzo's disdain for lies, Katie had told him the story of a dark and intricate romance, how she manipulated three women into destroying each other for Mitchel, all while she remained unharmed.

Lorenzo was instantly intrigued.

When Lorenzo learned that Katie wanted him to eliminate Mitchel's most beloved woman, Raegan, his interest increased.

Lorenzo thrived on encounters with individuals as twisted as him.

He abhorred noble causes of murder, preferring to indulge his own darker impulses.

Thus, a pact against Raegan's life was made between Katie and Lorenzo.

«I don't understand what you're saying, Mitchel. You think too badly of me. We grew up as childhood friends, right? You know I'm not what you suggest. Don't you know me at all? Katie denied the accusation.

«I don't know you, Katie. How could I? We never grew up as childhood friends. Every time you visited my house as a child, I avoided you. We see each other maybe once a year. How does that make us childhood friends? "You just made up this whole story in your mind."
