Chapter 9 - Marcus Begs For Forgiveness From The Broken Maid

The next afternoon, Marcus sat in the private hospital room where Elena was recovering from her injuries.

A white bandage covered her bruised cheek, and her right arm was resting in a supportive sling due to the fall.

Marcus placed a large floral arrangement and an envelope on the bedside table without making eye contact.

“How are you feeling, Elena? The doctors said your ribs are severely bruised, but nothing is fractured,” Marcus said gently.

“I’ll live, Mr. Vance. The baby is safe, and that’s what truly matters,” Elena answered without any bitterness in her tone.

“I fired Victoria’s legal team, and I’m personally handing over all security footage to the district attorney’s office,” Marcus promised.

“Good. A wealthy man’s apology doesn't heal broken bones, but justice might help me sleep at night,” Elena noted quietly.

Marcus bowed his head, realizing that regaining her trust would take far more than just a few remorseful words.
