Left for Dead Came Back for Everything novel Chapter 134

Yvonne, oh, Yvonne.

Didn't you make a huge spectacle at the hospital, announcing you were carrying the Roth family heir?

Didn't you parade that ultrasound around, bragging about how your unborn child was going to secure your marriage into high society?

So why are you suddenly on the candidate list for a grueling, stunt-heavy dance role?

Health Status: Excellent.

Just one word. Clean and simple.

No notes about a pregnancy.

No clauses requesting special accommodations.

"Extremely cooperative, available to join the crew immediately."

Eliza pushed open the doors to her apartment building.

She walked straight into her living room, spread the roster out on the coffee table, and used her phone to snap photos of every single detail on Yvonne's profile.

Then, she opened her messaging app and pulled up Gwen's chat.

She didn't send a voice note; she typed it out, word by word.

[Gwen, guess who I just found in the dancer roster for Echoes of the Valley.]

Two seconds later.

[Who?]

[Yvonne Vance. Lead dancer candidate. Notes say: Extremely cooperative, available to join immediately. Health status: Excellent.]

This time, Gwen didn't reply instantly.

There was about ten seconds of silence.

Then, an audio message practically exploded through the speaker.

"WHAT???"

Gwen's voice went from a shriek to hysterical laughter.

"Holy shit! Isn't Yvonne supposed to be pregnant?! Isn't she carrying the 'Roth family heir'?! Wasn't she using the baby to marry into money??? She's trying to take a Director Evans project while pregnant??"

"If she really was pregnant, there's no way she'd dare take this job! Everyone knows Director Evans has his actors flying around on wires doing insane stunts!!"

"And if she isn't pregnant—ha!! Oh, this is juicy!! Was that ultrasound fake?! Did she fake a pregnancy to trap Zander?!"

"My god! What is this woman's face made of?! Titanium?!"
