Chapter 2 - Nathaniel Confronts Vanessa About The Missing Security Footage
The digital timestamp on the security console flashed a silent, damning accusation in the dim light of the study.
Nathaniel Sinclair stared at the blinking red log, his chest tightening as the brutal truth settled over him.
The security feed covering his private library had been manually disabled using Vanessa’s personal master override code.
Just forty-eight hours before their high-society wedding at the Plaza, the woman he trusted most had intentionally blinded his estate cameras.
He locked the study screen, his jaw clenching so hard a muscle twitched violently along his cheek.
Without a word, Nathaniel walked out of the high-tech control room and marched down the long mahogany hallway.
His custom leather shoes clicked sharply against the imported Italian marble, echoing through the cavernous estate like gunshots.
He pushed open the heavy oak doors of the master parlor where Vanessa was reviewing seating charts with the wedding planner.

Vanessa looked up instantly, her manicured fingers resting over a stack of gold-embossed place cards with practiced elegance.
“Nathaniel, darling, you look pale; is something wrong with the catering arrangements for Saturday?” she asked smoothly.
