Adrian sat alone in his office long after everyone else had gone home.

The city lights stretched endlessly beyond the floor-to-ceiling windows, but he barely noticed them. His attention was fixed on a single photograph lying on his desk.

It was Amara.

She was laughing at something outside the frame, her eyes bright with a happiness he hadn't appreciated when it belonged to him.

    Adrian had built his empire on one principle. Facts before decisions. Yet when it came to Amara... He had abandoned that principle completely. The realization haunted him. The private investigator placed another file on the conference table. "I've verified every document." Adrian opened the folder. Inside were bank transfer records. Phone logs. Security reports.

One message made his blood run cold. *"Make sure Adrian sees the photos before Amara can explain anything."* Another followed. *"As long as he doubts her, she'll never have a place in his life."* Adrian closed his eyes. His chest tightened with every breath. He remembered that night three years ago. The anonymous envelope. The photographs. His anger. Amara's tears as she repeatedly said, "Please believe me." He hadn't. Not once. He had judged her without listening. He had punished her without proof. H
