Ever since Sophia received the heart-wrenching news of Alexander being in a coma, she had become a constant presence in his hospital room. In the initial days, she bounced between moments of despair and persistent demands to the nurses and doctors, urging them to provide the best possible care.
Eventually, Sophia stopped giving orders and settled into a quiet routine of staying by Alexander's bedside. Attempts by Evelyn or Sandro to persuade her away were met with temporary compliance, only for her to return after brief respites for showering or eating.
Days melted away as Sophia sat next to his bed, engaged in a one-sided conversation. Whether he could hear her or not was uncertain, but she couldn't reconcile with the idea that all of this had unfolded because of her.
She shared stories from her childhood and recounted lessons with Maestro Paus. Sophia remembered the promise she made to tell him about her music career the last time they were on his private j
As the sun dipped low on the horizon, casting a warm, golden glow over the reception venue, Sophia and Alexander found themselves enveloped in a whirlwind of joy and celebration.

Sophia's heart swelled with gratitude as she looked around the beautifully adorned reception hall. Delicate fairy lights danced among lush floral arrangements, casting an ethereal glow over the festivities. Soft music filled the air, its gentle melodies serving as the perfect backdrop for the evening's enchantment. "Can you believe this, Alexander?" Sophia whispered, her eyes sparkling with wonder. "We're finally married!" Alexander's gaze softened as he took in the scene before them, his heart brimming with joy. "It feels like a dream, Sophia," he replied, his voice tinged with awe. "A beautiful dream come true." As guests approached to offer their congratulations,
The morning of the wedding dawned with a soft glow of anticipation as Evelyn, Sophia's devoted maid of honor, tiptoed into her room. With a mischievous grin, she approached Sophia's bed and gently shook her awake."Rise and shine, Sleeping Beauty!" Evelyn chirped, her voice filled with excitement.Sophia groaned and buried her face in her pillow, momentarily forgetting the significance of the day ahead. "Can't I sleep for just five more minutes?"Evelyn chuckled and shook her head, tugging at the covers until Sophia finally relented and sat up, rubbing the sleep from her eyes."Come on, Sophia, today is the day you become Mrs. Stone!" Evelyn exclaimed, her eyes sparkling with excitement.Sophia's heart fluttered with nerves and excitement as she took in the magnitude of the moment.

Sophia and Alexander bustled around the spacious living room of their cozy home, the air thick with a mix of excitement and nervous energy. Wedding magazines lay scattered across the coffee table, adorned with sticky notes and hastily scrawled reminders."Did you call the florist to confirm the bouquet?" Sophia asked, her voice tinged with a hint of urgency as she glanced at Alexander, who was hunched over his laptop, furiously typing away."Yeah, they said everything's set," Alexander replied, his brow furrowed in concentration as he clicked through various tabs on the screen. "But I still need to finalize the playlist for the reception."Sophia nodded, her mind already racing ahead to the next item on their seemingly endless to-do list. "And what about the seating chart? Did you hear back from Aunt Martha about her dietary restrictions?"Alexander shook his head, his fingers flying across the keyboard as he typed out an email to their caterer. "Not yet, but I'll follow up with her a
The courtroom was dense with anticipation as the trial drew to its conclusion. After days of testimonies, cross-examinations, and relentless presentations of evidence, it was finally time for Sophia to make her closing argument. The weight of the moment settled on her shoulders as she stood, papers in hand, facing the jury who held the outcome in their hands."Ladies and gentlemen of the jury," Sophia began, her voice strong and clear, echoing slightly in the hushed room. "Over the past few days, you have been presented with overwhelming evidence that not only places the defendants at the scene of the crime but also directly implicates them in the conspiracy to murder my father."She paced slowly in front of the jury, making eye contact with each member as she spoke. "We have shown you phone records that map a network of calls between the defendants in the days leading up to my father's death. You have seen financial documents that detail unusual payments made by the defendants to kno
The evening was calm, with a gentle warmth suffusing the apartment as Sophia and Alexander sat down for dinner. The soft clink of cutlery and the savory aroma of the meal created a comforting atmosphere. Sophia, who had been caught up in a whirlwind of emotions and tasks over the past weeks, seemed to carry a lighter air about her."I found the dress, Alex," she said, a smile spreading across her face as she passed him the salad. "It’s more than just beautiful—it made me feel like a bride."Alexander looked up from his plate, his eyes shining with happiness and a touch of relief. "I can't wait to call you my wife," he replied earnestly. "It’s going to be a beautiful day."Sophia nodded, her smile lingering as she thought about the dress and the upcoming wedding. Then her expression sobered slightly as she shifted the conversation toward a more somber topic. "I've finalized everything with the case too," she continued, her voice steady but carrying a weight. "I want to get it over wit

The interior was spacious and airy, bathed in natural light that streamed through large windows, setting the various wedding dresses aglow like artifacts in a museum. Velvet sofas and plush chairs dotted the space, inviting relaxation and conversation.Sophia, with a tentative excitement beginning to flicker in her eyes, drifted towards the racks of gowns.

Before long, a saleswoman with an impeccably tailored suit and a warm, professional smile approached them.“Good morning, ladies! I'm Marianne, and I’ll be assisting you today. Do you have any particular styles in mind?” she inquired, her tone both friendly and efficient.Sophia
