Forced to Marry my Sister’s Fiancée Not Done Yet.
Edrick’s POVAfter the private investigator said those words, “A huge amount of money,” he didn't need to say anything else.I knew.I knew.Everything made sense. The judge was being paid. “Fuck it.” I groaned. I should have known.Alina had asked what it was, but I just shook my head. There was no need to stress her more than she already was.I looked at her and said, “Don't worry. I'm already getting this handled.”She smiled, a little hopeful.After driving her home, I drove to my private investigator's office. I wanted the details face-to-face.He told me the account was anonymous and they were trying to trace it, but it seemed the money had come from a very, very protected source.A protected source.It didn't make sense.Who was supporting Aria?Because if I knew anything about Aria Vale, it was that she didn't have the money for something like this. I had made sure of it. I had frozen every asset she owned. Every dime.So where was the money coming from?Definitely not fro

Aria’s POVRegina didn't give me the full briefing. Neither did Mom. But I just knew one thing: my court case was going to be linked to my mental health.I would be taken to a psych ward, of course, but for how long?Soon, I will be free, out of the city. I would get enough time to build against these terrible people who had ruined my life. And make them pay. The day came, the day of the court hearing.The last five days was torture. Most of the time, I was locked in my cell, counting every minute, every hour until my freedom.On the second day, the doctor came. I was escorted to a hospital where my brain and everything else were examined.Of course, Regina had already assured me that no matter what, the test results would come out positive.On the third day, I waited.On the fourth day, Mom and Regina visited. It was all anticipation and plotting. And then, on the fifth day, I waited.I waited.I waited.I waited.It was the longest day of all.It seemed to drag on forever. Time b

Edrick’s POVFive days.The court was adjourned to five days from the last hearing. And five days were enough. Enough for me to get more information, to get to the bottom of whatever was happening.But then again, five days was torture, especially for Alina. It was five days of her being quiet, lying in bed, drowning in her thoughts, not talking to anyone. Not even me. Not even Clover.I tucked Clover into bed on the fourth night and moved to our bedroom, where Alina lay with her head facing up, lost in deep thoughts. I didn't know whether to call her name, to talk to her, to try to comfort her, or to just let her be. To let the silence consume her.I really didn't know what to do.“I want to go see Mom tomorrow,” she broke the silence.I looked at her, my brows raised in confusion.“Your mother?” I asked. Of course, it would be her mother. Which other mom would she be referring to?“Yes,” she nodded.I didn't know what to say. I wanted to ask why, but then I didn't want to push her.

Alina's POVEvery piece of evidence that was brought forward, every word Liam said to support our case, and every witness who gave their testimony.Each word was a fresh reminder of the trauma Aria put my daughter through, and each word made me hate Aria a little more than I already did.Edrick held my hand throughout the court hearing, and when Liam brought forward the body cam footage from the bridge…The footage of my daughter being held by Aria, with a gun pointed at her head, played on the screen.Edrick held me even tighter.I didn’t close my eyes.I watched the whole thing.I watched it.I watched the footage of my daughter being held at gunpoint by Aria.I watched as Liam gave his points and explained every point to the judge.The hall fell silent. Everyone waited for the next thing the judge was going to say.“Defense?” He raised his hand towards Aria’s lawyer.She took a deep breath before standing up from her seat.For a moment, she said nothing.I looked at Edrick, then ba

Aria's POVThe next person to be called to the witness box to give her testimony was none other than Alina.Alina.Alina. Bitterness crept my chest. All I wished for was a chance to end her goddamned life once and for all. She stood up, head held high, as she made her way to the witness box.Her eyes briefly glanced my way, and I felt my breath hitch.My heart began pounding.I wasn't scared of Alina. The only feeling I had towards her was pure hatred. I was scared of everything she was going to say.She stood there and took her oath of honesty. As if there is anything honest about her. I took a deep breath and braced myself for what was coming next.She started with the whole story of how I took her daughter.I didn't want to pay attention to what she was saying.But of course, I couldn't ignore it. They were the only sound I could hear in the courtroom.Everyone was listening. And If I try to zone out, It'd be struck with depressing silence. “After days of searching for Clover,

Aria’s POV I couldn't believe it.I couldn't stop myself from smiling as my eyes drifted to Alina and Edrick. They sat there, their faces painted with pain and agony.My smile grew bigger and bigger.This is just the beginning. I nodded before turning back to my lawyer, Regina.“Thank you, Regina,” I said. I've always seen her as someone competent, but for the first time since this case started, I actually believed in her. I actually saw her skills. There really is hope after all.“Thank you,” I said, stretching an arm towards her.She took my hand.“Aria, I'm just doing my job,” she said with a smile, clearly satisfied with her work. Mom stood up from her seat and moved to the front where we were.“Aria,” she said before hugging me.“Mom, thank you. Tell Mr. Vale thank you,” I said, smiling, because all of this would not have happened without him. He really did pull through. “I promise you, you'll get out of here. You'll get out of this mess,” Mom said.“About that,” Regina cut
