EMILY’S POV I stared at my phone, heart hammering against my ribs.It was Ethan’s marriage announcement. For a moment, I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me. I blinked rapidly, but the words didn’t change.They stared right back at me, cruel and real. I read it again. And again. My fingers tightened around the phone until my knuckles turned white. I remembered Victoria’s words.... words that once sounded like a threat but now sounded like a prophecy being fulfilled."The week Ethan returns, I'm going to marry him." I clenched my jaw, trying to swallow the lump rising in my throat.It was happening.It was actually happening. So she was really going to marry him.And soon. Will Ethan get married to her? What will be my fate? My

EMILY'S POV"That’s not all, Camille," I said firmly, leaning in so close that she had no choice but to meet my eyes. "I know you. You have more to say. There’s something sitting right on the tip of your tongue, but something is stopping you. You’re holding back."I crossed my arms and kept my gaze locked on her face. She shifted in her seat, her fingers fidgeting with the edge of her sleeve. Her eyes darted away, staring at the wall, then at her half-empty cup, avoiding me like I was the plague."Why am I even here?" she muttered under her breath, shaking her head. "Why did I even pick up your call, Emily? Why did I come?"She sounded like she was scolding herself.I let out a dry laugh and leaned back slightly, pretending to be relaxed but inside, I was on fire. Without breaking eye contact, I slid my phone under the table, pressed the recording button, and set it down beside my bag. Camille didn’t notice. She was too busy battling with her thoughts.I took a slow, deep breath and w

I dialed Olivia's line, my fingers trembling as I pressed the screen. She picked up almost immediately, her voice sharp with concern. "Emily? What’s wrong?" "Liv… I’ve figured it out," I gasped, my breath short. "Mara is innocent. She didn’t do it." I ended the call.My voice broke as I struggled to explain everything rushing through my mind. My chest was tight, my heart pounding like a war drum. Without waiting for Olivia’s reply, I grabbed my tote bag and bolted out of the house, my footsteps loud against the wooden floor. My vision was blurry from tears I hadn’t even realized were falling. I had no time to think. I just knew I had to get to Mara fast. I pressed Ethan's number next. He answered on the first ring, his deep voice calm but alert, like he had been waiting for me. "Emily?" I slid into the back seat of

EMILY'S POV "Excuse us," Commissioner Joe said, his tone calm but firm. The male and female officers nodded and quickly approached him. They left the room, and the commissioner turned back toward me. He walked over and pressed a button on the wall probably to switch off the cameras or mics in the room. Then, without saying much, he stepped closer. His hands worked quickly as he unlocked the cuffs binding my wrists. The cold metal fell away, leaving behind red marks that stung. I swallowed hard, blinking back tears. "You can come in," Commissioner Joe called out, his voice slightly softer now. The investigation room door opened again, and my breath hitched when I saw Ethan step inside. A tall man followed behind him, dressed in a sleek black suit probably a lawyer. The moment my eyes met Ethan’s, everything else disappeared. Without thinking twice, I ran

EMILY'S POV I was released that night, all thanks to attorney Eric’s brilliance and Ethan’s influence. If it weren't for them, I might still be locked up, accused of a crime I didn’t commit. As I stepped out of the police station, the cool night air hit me like a wave, but it was immediately followed by something hotter, heavier chaos. The press. Flashes of cameras lit up the entrance like fireworks. Dozens of reporters crowded toward me with microphones, smartphones, and voice recorders thrust in my face like weapons. "Ms. Carter, is it true you were released due to lack of evidence?" "Were you and Mara Pumpkin fighting before the incident?" "Do you have any comments on the accusation of murder?" "What’s your relationship with the victim?" "Why were you at the crime scene if you weren’t
