Sophia Makes Her Move

Sophia’s dinner party was nothing like the loud, chaotic spectacle of Fashion Week.

This one was quiet. Intentional. Calculated.

A private rooftop lounge overlooking the city skyline. Warm golden lights glimmered against glass railings, soft jazz hummed in the background, and the few guests, designers, a handful of influencers, two investors, knew when to speak and, more importantly, when to remain silent. Every detail spoke of refinement, exclusivity, and c

  • Married Twice, Loved Once    The truth they found

    1:05 P.M. — Cross Group HeadquartersDamian walked into his office without saying a word.His lawyer followed behind him, carrying a thick file.The moment the door closed, Damian turned around.“Tell me everything.”His lawyer placed the file on the desk.“We're still waiting for the complete case file from the police.”“Then what do we have?”“Preliminary information.”Damian stared at him.“Start.”The lawyer opened the file.“First, the bridge incident involving Vivienne Carter.”Damian's expression tightened.“I know about that.”“The police have CCTV footage.”“CCTV?”“Yes.”Damian walked toward the window.“Does it clearly show Aria pushing her?”His lawyer hesitated.“Yes.”Damian closed his eyes.For several seconds, he said nothing.“Continue.”“The second allegation concerns Vivienne's hospital stay.”Damian slowly turned around.“What exactly happened there?”“They haven't released all the details yet.”“Then find out.”“I will.”His lawyer turned another page.“There is a

  • Married Twice, Loved Once    Suspect

    Damian arrives at the station.He wants Aria immediately.The police won't release her.He demands to know the charges.His lawyer starts working on her case.Damian learns there is evidence, but we don't reveal everything to him yet.Most importantly, Damian still doesn't know about the food or the full extent of Aria's actions.End with him deciding he's going to find out the truth himself.That keeps the tension alive.Chapter 205: I Need to See Her11:42 A.M. — Police HeadquartersDamian walked through the entrance of the police headquarters with his lawyer beside him.His face was hard, but beneath the calm expression, his mind was in chaos.Aria had been arrested.That was all he knew.And it wasn't enough.He approached the reception desk.“I'm here for Aria Cross.”The receptionist looked up.“Sir, are you family?”“I'm her husband.”She checked the computer.“Yes. Mrs. Cross is here.”“Take me to her.”“I'm sorry, sir. You can't go directly to—”“I don't want to go directly a

    10:42 A.M. — Police HeadquartersAria sat quietly inside the interrogation room.Her wrists were still cuffed.She stared at the table in front of her, trying to understand how everything had changed so quickly.Only an hour ago, she had been standing in her kitchen preparing snacks.Now she was sitting in a police station facing murder allegations.The door opened.Inspector Andrew walked in with a folder.A female officer followed him and sat across from Aria.“Mrs. Cross.”Aria looked up.“Yes?”“You're entitled to legal representation before we begin questioning.”“I want a lawyer.”“Of course.”The officer placed a glass of water in front of her.“You can also make a phone call.”Aria immediately reached for the phone.“Damian.”She dialed his number.It rang.And rang.No answer.She tried again.Still nothing.Her eyes filled with tears.“He doesn't know.”Inspector Andrew said nothing.Aria lowered the phone.“Please tell him I'm here.”“You'll be able to speak with your lawye

    9:43 A.M. — Cross MansionAria stood in the kitchen, preparing a few snacks.The wedding was only days away, but for once, she wasn't thinking about flowers, dresses, or guests.She was simply trying to keep herself busy.She placed the last piece of fruit on a plate when suddenly—Bang!The sound of a car door closing echoed from outside.Aria paused.Then came another sound.Several footsteps.She frowned and looked toward the kitchen entrance.A few seconds later, one of the maids hurried inside.“Ma'am.”Aria turned.“What is it?”“There are some people outside.”“People?”“Yes, ma'am. They said they want to see you.”Aria wiped her hands with a kitchen towel.“Who are they?”“I don't know, ma'am. They look like officers.”Aria's expression changed slightly.“Officers?”The maid nodded.Aria looked toward the living room.“Let them in.”“Yes, ma'am.”The maid hurried away.Aria followed a few seconds later.The moment she stepped into the living room, she stopped.Several men dres

  • Married Twice, Loved Once    The Evidence

    8:45 A.M. — High CourtThe second day of Richard Carter's trial began under even greater attention.By the time the courtroom doors opened, reporters were already waiting outside. Yesterday's proceedings had made headlines across the city, and everyone wanted to know what evidence the prosecution would present next.Richard was brought into the courtroom shortly before the judge arrived.He looked composed.At least on the outside.His lawyer leaned closer."Today may be more difficult."Richard adjusted his cuffs."I told you. They don't have enough to convict me."His lawyer didn't respond.Richard looked at him."What?""We'll see."Before Richard could answer, the judge entered."All rise."Everyone stood.Moments later, they took their seats.The prosecutor rose."Your Honour, the prosecution would like to call its next witness."The courtroom became quiet.A middle-aged man walked toward the witness stand.Richard watched him carefully.He didn't recognize him.The man took the

  • Married Twice, Loved Once    The Trial

    9:30 A.M. — High CourtThe courtroom was packed.Reporters filled the benches, their cameras pointed toward the entrance. Lawyers whispered among themselves while the judge sat quietly behind the bench, reviewing the thick file placed before him.Then the courtroom doors opened.Richard Carter was escorted inside.He was no longer the powerful businessman who once commanded an entire empire.He wore a simple dark suit, his wrists restrained.His face remained hard, but the confidence he once carried was gone.Elizabeth and Vivienne sat several rows behind him.The moment Vivienne saw her father, her eyes filled with tears."Dad..."Richard glanced toward them.For a brief second, his expression softened.Then he looked away."All rise."Everyone stood as the judge entered."Be seated."The courtroom settled into silence.The judge looked toward the prosecution."Counsel, you may proceed."The prosecutor stood."Your Honour, the defendant, Richard Carter, is facing multiple charges ari

    Aria got home exhausted , the kind of tired that sits deep in the bones. Her steps were slow as she entered through the garden walkway. Selene was there, lounging like a queen on a wicker chair, snacking on strawberries and scrolling through her phone. Her sunglasses were pushed up lazily, the pict

    The sun had barely risen when the soft hum of packing filled Aria’s room. Grandma Eleanor stood by the bed, carefully folding her shawls into a small suitcase.“Grandma, I wish you’d stay a little longer,” Aria said quietly, her voice small, her eyes tired but warm.Eleanor turned and smiled, that

    Upstairs in Damian’s room, Selene stood before the mirror, her reflection glowing in the soft evening light.Her lips curled into a slow, devilish smile — the kind that didn’t reach her eyes.She adjusted the strap of her red satin dress, tilting her head just enough to admire her handiwork.

    Saturday arrived like a scene straight out of a glossy magazine.The Carter estate shimmered under the late afternoon sun, draped in gold ribbons, floating candles, and fresh white roses. Guests filled the grand garden—fashion icons, business elites, relatives, and a swarm of paparazzi waiting for
