Cruelty often hides behind expensive smiles and polished marble halls, but truth always finds its way back into the light when love refuses to surrender. So let's dive into this story chapter by chapter and enjoy every moment of it.
Julian: Elena? What are you doing on the floor?
Elena kept her head down, her hands trembling as she squeezed the filthy yellow rag over the icy white marble.
Elena: I'm sorry, sir! I'm so sorry! I'll clean the water right now!
Julian: Sir? Elena, look at me! Why are you dressed like that?
A sharp, high-heeled click echoed from the grand staircase above them.
Victoria: Don't waste your breath on her, Julian. She was here all along. She is my maid now.
Julian's eyes darkened as he turned toward the staircase, his knuckles turning white around his leather suitcase handle.
Julian: What did you do to my wife, Victoria?
Victoria: I put her exactly where a useless woman belongs.
Before Victoria could finish her cruel chuckle, Julian stepped across the wet marble and struck her across the cheek. Victoria stumbled back with a gasp, dropping her crystal glass as it shattered into hundreds of shimmering pieces on the floor.
Julian: Freeze every account they control! You imprisoned my wife in her own house!
