9:40 A.M. — High Court

The courtroom remained silent.

Aria sat behind the defendant's table with her hands resting tightly together.

Her lawyer had already warned her.

Vivienne's testimony would be difficult to hear.

But Aria didn't need a warning.

She knew what Vivienne was going to say.

  • Married Twice, Loved Once    The Remaining Evidence

    11:05 A.M. — High CourtThe courtroom remained tense after Vivienne stepped down from the witness stand.Aria sat quietly beside her lawyer.Her hands rested in her lap.They were still shaking.But she kept them there.She had already admitted the truth about what happened on the bridge.There was nothing left to take back.Nothing left to deny.The judge looked toward the prosecution.“Call your next witness.”The prosecutor rose.“The prosecution calls Detective Daniel Harris.”The courtroom doors opened.A man in a dark suit entered.He walked toward the witness stand with a thick file in his hands.Aria watched him.She recognized him.He had been one of the investigators involved in Sophia Lin's case.Her stomach tightened.This was the part she had been dreading.Not because she intended to deny it.But because hearing Sophia's name would force her to face something she had spent too long trying not to think about.Sophia was dead.And Aria had been the one who started it all.

    7:10 A.M. — Police Headquarters, Detention RoomA new week had begun.Aria woke before the officer came for her.She had barely slept.For most of the night, she had stared at the ceiling, listening to the silence around her and waiting for morning to arrive.Now it was here.The day she would finally stand before a judge.Aria sat slowly on the edge of the narrow bed.Her hands rested on her lap.They were shaking.She looked down at them.For so long, those hands had been used to hold secrets.To sign documents.To make plans.To hurt people.And today, there would be nowhere left to hide.A knock sounded against the door.Aria lifted her head.The female officer stepped inside.“Your lawyer is here.”Aria nodded.“Okay.”She stood.Her legs felt weak, but she forced herself to walk.She was done running.Even if every step forward terrified her.7:30 A.M. — Police Headquarters, Consultation RoomAria's lawyer was waiting when she entered.Several documents were spread across the ta

She dabbed extra concealer under her eyes, squared her shoulders, and marched into Damian’s office with a smile that looked like it had been glued on by a rookie makeup artist.“Good morning, babe,” she said, voice sof
