Chapter 3 - The Fiancée Falls Apart Under Sudden Public Scrutiny
Victoria stood frozen near the altar, her designer wedding gown feeling suddenly heavy and suffocating.
The diamond engagement ring Julian had just ripped from her finger lay discarded near the shattered hearing aid.
“Julian, please... let me explain, Marcus forced me into this partnership!” Victoria shrieked, tears ruining her makeup.
Julian stepped past her as if she were a ghost, kneeling down to scoop up the tiny pieces of Leo’s broken device.
“You targeted my deaf son because you thought he couldn’t hear your whispered conspiracies,” Julian said coldly.
“I loved you, Julian! I helped raise him!” Victoria cried, dropping to her knees on the stone floor.
“You treated him like a disposable pawn in a financial execution,” Julian fired back without looking at her.
