“Seraphina! Have you lost your mind?!” Grant screamed, breaking free from the security guard's grip with a furious surge of adrenaline.
He lunged forward down the central aisle, pushing chairs aside as he sprinted directly toward the stage steps.

“You were my husband, Grant,” Seraphina corrected, her voice echoing coldly across the silent auditorium.
