Chapter 2 - Daniel Confronts Jessica About Pushing His Elderly Mother

The luxury wedding boutique fell into an absolute, suffocating silence as Daniel stood up from his mother's side.
His royal-blue polo shirt strained across his broad shoulders as he turned his blazing gaze directly onto Jessica.
“You told me she tripped over her own walker,” Daniel said, his voice dropping into a dangerous, icy whisper.
Jessica’s champagne-gold gown rustled as she took a nervous half-step backward across the polished marble floor.
“Daniel, don't listen to her old, confused ramblings; she’s just trying to sabotage our big day!” Jessica shrieked.
Eleanor clutched her son’s arm tightly, her frail fingers trembling against the fabric of his sleeve.
“She pushed me on purpose, Daniel... she said I was standing in her way of taking over everything,” Eleanor whispered.
Daniel’s jaw clenched so hard a muscle twitched violently along his sharp jawline.
He took a slow, deliberate step toward his fiancée, his eyes devoid of any warmth or affection.
