Chapter 2: Everything Booked Under Her Name

Julian read the message three times.

His hands were shaking by the third.

Sienna leaned over his shoulder.

"What is it?

What did she say?"

He didn't answer.

The second part of Clara's message was short.

Just two sentences.

*I canceled the honeymoon suite reservation this morning.

Every hotel, every restaurant, every excursion — all of it was booked under my name.*

Sienna grabbed her own phone and opened the hotel app.

Reservation not found.

"Julian." Her voice dropped.

"Where are we supposed to sleep tonight?"

He was already dialing Clara's number.

It rang once.

Then a recorded message played.

*The number you have dialed has been temporarily disconnected.*

He tried again.

Same recording.

Sienna sat down slowly on the edge of the bed — the only room the front desk had available at full walk-in price.

A standard room.

One floor above the service entrance.

Julian stared at the wall.

This wasn't the Clara he thought he knew.

The woman he married had smiled, said "business comes first," and walked away without a single tear.

That was the part that scared him most.

Then his phone buzzed again.

Not a message this time.

A notification from his bank.

And when he opened it...

His face went white all over again.
