Chapter 9 - The Hidden Truth About Isabel’s Secret Corporate Empire

Flashbacks revealed the meticulous years of planning that preceded Isabel’s public humiliation in the ballroom.
When Julian publicly cheated on her and demeaned her background, she didn't cry out of weakness; she cried from excitement.
