Chapter 22 - THE CONFRONTATION WITH VICTORIA

Willow insisted on accompanying him, stepping into the modest hotel room flanked by two Thorne security guards.
Victoria sat on the bed, trembling violently as she looked up at the powerful heiress.
"I didn't tell them anything, Willow! I swear!" Victoria wept frantically, clutching a small rosary in her hands.
"Who approached you, Victoria?" Willow asked firmly, sitting down in the chair across from her. "Tell me the truth."
"A man with a silver ring... he had a European accent," Victoria confessed, wiping her nose with a tissue.

"He paid me fifty thousand dollars six months ago to push Julian into abusing you in public," Victoria revealed in a shocking admission.
Willow gasped, realizing the entire Plaza Hotel incident had been orchestrated from the beginning to provoke her father into action.
