Gavin’s POV
My hands shook as I stared at my phone.
Drugged?? Monty named the first file. I looked at the hospital door behind me, knowing that on the other side of that door was a woman I didn’t trust. Eliza was off getting that paternity test done, and I was about to have more answers than I could imagine with just a click of a button.
Was I ready to know the truth about that night?
With a deep breath, I clicked on the video. It started with Rachel and me arriving at the bar. I was on my phone, trying to find a ride for that night, and then I set my phone down on the bar countertop. I asked the bartender's attention and ordered myself a scotch while Rachel ordered a classic martini with an olive.
We talked while we waited for our drinks, and my phone remained untouched on the bar. The bartender brought over our drinks, and I took a sip of the scotch while maintaining a conversation with Rachel, who seemed to be speaking animatedly about something. I couldn’t remember the conversation we had, which meant I was barely paying attention to what she was saying.
After a few minutes, I got up, excusing myself to the bathroom. I forgot my phone on the counter, and I didn’t realize it had lit up with a message. However, Raechel seemed to have noticed.
I watched her look around for a moment, making sure I wasn't in sight, before she grabbed my phone and typed something into it. After a minute, she was sliding the phone into her purse.
I remembered looking for my phone that evening during my drunken stupor, but I never imagined that Rachel had stolen it.
I clenched my fists tightly as the video continued.
Rachel took a small baggie out of her purse and a pinch of whatever powder was in it. She glanced around briefly before she sprinkled it into my scotch and then stirred it with her finger.
The bartender was completely oblivious of her actions. By the time I returned, she put the baggie back in her purse and acted as if nothing had happened. She continued her story as I continued to drink the scotch.
The video ends.
“What the actual fuck?” I muttered, my brows furrowed as my body trembled.
Rachel drugged me that night; that’s why I got overly drunk after just one scotch. It wasn’t the alcohol; it was whatever Rachel drugged me with.
In the next video, Monty labeled: Call for help.

Anyone have suggestions for other books like this that are captivating for me to read while I wait for more chapters etc?...
Despite everyone's frustrations with this book, I think it's quite entertaining. I think Gavin and Judy have a long road ahead of them. If/when they're able to finally get on the same page, they still have to deal with his mom. Not to mention Judy has to reconcile with Matthew after abandoning him when she promised she wouldn't; and face Irene with the news that she's carrying a new sibling. Lol, Levi is the least of their concerns. Then there's having the baby. Pretty sure Gavin has untreated trauma associated with Irene's birth. My thoughts are, just be patient, find other books to read in between and enjoy the ride. I think it'll be good....
Anyone Know where we Can Read all of this book 2 chapters a day is a joke And waiting is killing me I’ll just want to end this book !!...
I never really read these books, but came across this one and annoyingly got hooked. Do these books just go on forever with no resolution? As if so, I’m going to call it a day and write my own ending lol...
Lovely… I just found this book Friday and I’ve finished all that here. How often do they release more and how much at a time?! I’m invested....
So Spencer was “in love” before he even meet her? I used to wake up and read this book but now I let days go past before I read the chapters...
Well heres to the next 300 pages of this never ending story because now Gavin is going to have to save her before Spencer does something even more stupid because Judy is to weak to do anything for herself apparently....
3 chapters we didn't need. Already guessed Spencer was working with Levi and that the attacks were also Levi...
I think of all the things that bother me the most about the rushed writing is the inconsistencies. Judy and Nans room number was initially 606 when they checked in at the island resort for the Gamma Competition, but then was suddemly 906 - which turned out to be needed information later. When they first met, Judy went to Gavin's office the next day and told him about her father's imprisonment and her need for money, but then later the author made it sound like Gavin had no idea. She won 5 million for takimg first in the competition but then it was eluded to her not have much money and needed cash from the additional tutoring job with Lukas and the position in Levi's elite force. Honestly, the wishy-washy writing makes it feel like Gavin is less of a strong leader and more like he has so much personal drama he cant keep anything straight. It feels like Judy is weaker than the author has intended, as well. I feel like Rachel's return could have been tightened up with more details around her time Gavin instead of making Judy out to be a bit pathetic and desperate for just a sliver of Gavins attention. Her pregnancy was also disappointing because of the rushed plot, the author seemed to have forgotten that Judy gave her virginity to Gavin and no other sexual partners were introduced for her - so who the father of her baby was shouldn't have felt like such a surprise - it felt a bit insulting to her vibe and the character build throughout the hundreds of unnecessary chapters. I believe if the author spent a little more time and cleaned up some of the events with pertinent and necessary details and remove the oddities of over-the-top pieces (like the shower gel and cologne that appeared out of nowhere for Gavin in Judy's condo) this storyline could really be something great and intriguing for readers....
