Chapter 14 - EVICTION FROM FIFTH AVENUE
An hour later, moving trucks lined the curb outside Julian's penthouse apartment on Fifth Avenue.
Uniformed security officers placed yellow security tape across the private elevator doors while packing high-end furniture into wooden crates.
Julian, currently out on a two-million-dollar bail paid by his mother's remaining jewelry sales, stood on the sidewalk in a wrinkled coat.
He watched in absolute disbelief as his custom sports cars were winched onto the back of flatbed towing vehicles.
A sleek black sedan pulled up to the curb, its rear window rolling down slowly to reveal Willow sitting in the luxurious leather interior.
Julian rushed toward the vehicle, but Gabriel Hayes immediately blocked his path, planting a heavy hand against Julian's chest.
"Willow! Please!" Julian cried out desperately, tears of humiliation streaming down his face. "Give me one more chance! I was crazy!"

Willow looked at him through her dark sunglasses, her expression remaining entirely unmoved.
"You told me I was nothing without your money, Julian," Willow said softly before the window rolled up, leaving him weeping in the autumn rain.
