Chapter 6 - Victoria Tries To Blame Everyone Except Herself Tonight

Victoria wiped her smeared mascara with a shaking hand, her facade of elegance completely shattered.
“I did it because you belonged to me, David! She was just a nobody from the lower districts!” Victoria confessed wildly.
The confession hung in the air like poison, shocking every single person still lingering inside the grand ballroom.
“You manipulated medical records, bribed doctors, and forced my wife into hiding for six agonizing years?” David whispered hoarsely.
“She didn't appreciate your wealth the way I did! I helped you build this empire!” Victoria shrieked in self-defense.
“You built nothing except a prison of lies, and now you’re going to live inside a real one,” David declared coldly.
He signaled to the head of his security detail, nodding toward the sobbing woman standing by the wall.
“Escort her out of my sight and lock her inside the holding suite until federal marshals arrive,” David ordered.
The guards grabbed Victoria firmly by her arms, dragging her expensive silk gown across the shattered champagne glass.
