Chapter 4 - Alejandro Tries To Seize Control Of The Room
Alejandro forced a chilling, manic smile across his face, trying desperately to regain control of the crumbling narrative. “The old woman is losing her mind, Rafael; she’s senile and confused,” Alejandro lied smoothly.
“Do I look senile to you, Alejandro? Do I look confused about the girl you locked in the guest suite?” Victoria shrieked. Rafael raised his hand, signaling for silence as he processed the explosive new information.
“Sofia... isn't that the young woman who mysteriously vanished from the city five years ago?” Rafael asked thoughtfully. Elena remembered reading old missing person articles online when she first moved into the mansion.
“She didn't vanish; she escaped before he could finish what he started,” Victoria confessed bitterly. Alejandro lunged forward with a roar of pure fury, attempting to snatch the phone right out of Rafael’s hand.
Rafael didn't even flinch as his security detail intercepted Alejandro, slamming him hard against the oak doorframe. “You are done, Alejandro. Your empire, your marriage, and your freedom are gone,” Rafael stated calmly.

“We are leaving right now, Dad,” Elena said, turning toward the grand entrance without looking back. Rafael nodded approvingly, keeping his eyes locked on Alejandro as he backed away toward the open doors.
