Lara and jayden were getting freaky. Lara told the boi that she was ready for some JaDDy action. he got off the bed to get some cds to protect his weapon from her warzone, but something on his phone caught his eye.

Basically, i'm trying to lighten the mood for the upcoming tension.

Concern pushed Lara off the bed to find out what had strangely stolen his attention. She stood beside him in her nakedness as she inquired, placing a hand on his muscled arm and waist, "What is it?"

"What is this?" Jayden turned his head to look her in the eye.

Lara immediately picked up the confusion and curiosity blazing in his crystal blue almond-shaped eyes as he turned the iPhone's screen towards her.

The only thing she could see was a text message from an unknown number. And its contents had her gaping like her lips had a strong repellency for each other;

'Your father isn't as faithful to your mother as you think he is. Ask Lara for more details. She knows everything. She's not as honest as you blindly think she is.'

"What... What- who..." words had abandoned Lara like she was complete toxicity and rational thinking had taken a vacation. Suddenly baby language began to make sense to her. For that moment she felt what it was like to be mute; to want to voice something out but not permitted to by forces unseen.

For that moment, she felt trapped.

All she could do was to stare into Jayden's questioning eyes as her heartbeat accelerated with each and every passing second beneath her naked flesh.

Who had sent that? And how had the person known she had been aware of Mr. Benson's infidelity? How had the person known about his infidelity, anyways?

The worst part was that Jayden hadn't worded a thing, the corners of his dull pink lips as straight as a pole as he earnestly awaited Lara's possible take on the message he had received since her name had been mentioned.

"W- w- w-" she stammered, terrified of Jayden's reaction to anything she would have to say.

She should have been honest with him from the moment they had become serious with their relationship. She knew she should have told him what she had known about his father. He did not need to find out this way... To find out about his father's unfaithfulness, and her knowledge of it.

Two blows at once.

But who had sent it? Who was behind the message?

Lara finally recovered from her brief paralysis as she inquired in a murmur, looking up into the skeptical eyes of the man she loved, "Who sent this?"

Jayden had registered Lara's clear reaction to the message. He didn't need a bachelor's degree in psychology to know that there had been some truth to it and that Lara had been concealing something.
