Victor looked at Elise. "Then who are you targeting?"
Hugo folded his arms. "His assets? His business? We don't even know what it is."
Elise's smile widened. "Naomi."
The name settled in the car.
Hugo's expression shifted from irritation to confusion.
Victor's eyes sharpened.
Elise turned back to the window, watching the outer gate draw closer. "Lux Vaelthorn may be dangerous," she said softly. "But men like him still have pride."
Hugo frowned. "What are you talking about?"
Elise's reflection smiled. "If he finds out Naomi was sleeping around with another man…"
Hugo went still.
Victor did not move at all.
Elise continued, voice gentle as poison poured into crystal. "He will throw her away and I… will replace her."
The car seemed colder.
Hugo stared at his sister.
For once, his usual smirk disappeared completely. "You want to frame Naomi?"
Elise looked at him. "Frame is such an ugly word."
