Leila POV:
She knew.
The realization hit me like a sledgehammer, knocking the breath out of me. Lily knew I wasn't sick—she'd overheard everything. My plan, my only chance to expose her, was falling apart right in front of me. Panic gripped me as I replayed her smug expression, her sweetly venomous words. She'd been taunting me, daring me to react, knowing full well she had me cornered.
Shit. Shit. Shit.
How could I have been so careless? I was so close to exposing her, to finally proving my innocence to Drake and clearing my name, and now she had the upper hand. I could feel my pulse pounding, the urgency building within me like a storm. I had to get to Drake. If she got to him first, she'd poison him with her lies and turn him against me before I could even explain. She was relentless—she wouldn't waste a second.
