Sophia held her breath, her fingers tightly gripping the edge of the table. She had spent weeks imagining the worst possible outcome, and now every second felt unbearable. “The charges against you for the murder of Rebecca Stein are dismissed due to insufficient evidence.”Sophia’s eyes widened before a huge smile suddenly spread across her face. “What? You mean I’m free?”She let out a breath she didn’t even realize she had been holding and laughed in disbelief. “I knew it! I knew they couldn’t convict me! I told everyone I didn’t kill that woman!”But before Sophia could celebrate any further, Judge Morrison continued. “However, this court has found sufficient evidence to establish that another individual may have been responsible for Rebecca Stein’s death.”The courtroom immediately fell silent. Judge Morrison turned his attention toward Aurelia“Aurelia Voss, the forensic evidence presented before this court establishes that your DNA was recovered from underneath the victim’s finge

Gabriella’s face crumpled as she looked at Alejandro. “I don’t know what happened,” she said through her tears. “Elena came into the bathroom to speak to me. We were talking normally, and then she said she was going back downstairs.”Alejandro stared at her. “Then what happened?”“She turned to leave, but she suddenly slipped.”Gabriella pointed toward the bathroom, her voice trembling. “She fell so hard that her head hit the floor. I rushed over to her immediately and tried to wake her, but she wasn’t responding.”Alejandro looked at his sister’s body, his eyes filling with tears. “You’re saying she just fell?”“Yes,” Gabriella whispered. “I swear. One moment she was standing there, and the next she was on the floor.”She wiped her cheeks and continued, “I called her name over and over, but she wouldn’t answer me. I was terrified, Alejandro. I didn’t know what to do.”Alejandro looked down at Elena, his face filled with disbelief and grief. “She was perfectly fine a few minutes ago.”

Everyone turned when Aunt Cordelia entered the bathroom. She walked slowly toward them, her silver hair falling around her shoulders and her eyes moving from Elena’s body to Gabriella. She stopped a few feet away, gripping the rosary in her hand.“This wedding,” Cordelia said quietly. “This marriage… it is cursed.”Gabriella’s face went pale. She instinctively placed a hand over her heavily pregnant stomach. “What are you talking about?” she asked.Cordelia looked at her for a long moment before speaking again. “In our tradition, when death surrounds a wedding like this, it is not something we should ignore. A wedding is supposed to begin with happiness and blessings. But this one began with death.”Alejandro’s expression hardened. “Enough.”Cordelia looked at him. “Alejandro my nephew, listen to me. There are signs that should never be ignored. Your sister died on the day you married this woman. That is not normal.”Alejandro let out a cold laugh. “Not normal? My sister slipped, hit

FAVINO PRIVATE AIRPORT — 7:15 PMAlejandro walked beside Gabriella through the private terminal, one hand resting protectively against her back. She had cleaned the blood from her face, but her nose was still swollen from Serena’s punch. She looked exhausted, angry, and more than ready to leave everything behind.When they reached the waiting area, Gabriella slowly lowered herself into a chair and rubbed her stomach. “I still can’t believe Serena attacked me on my wedding day,” she complained, looking at Alejandro. “What kind of person does that?”Alejandro’s face remained cold. “Forget Serena. You’ve had enough for one day. You need to rest.”Gabriella studied his face for a moment before reaching for his hand. “Do you really believe me?” she asked quietly.Alejandro looked at her. His expression gave nothing away. “I believe you told me what happened.”Gabriella gave him a small smile and leaned against his shoulder. “I just want to get away from this place.”“We will,” Alejandro s

Judge Holloway announced, looking over the courtroom. “Court is now in session,The case of Flores versus Blackwood, regarding custody of the minor child, Aiden Blackwood. Mr. Sterling, you may proceed.”Mr. Sterling stood and walked toward the center of the courtroom. He adjusted his suit before turning toward the judge, his expression calm and professional. “Your Honor, we are here today because Ariana Flores is an unfit mother. She abandoned her son and left him in the care of a nanny who smokes. While her two-year-old child was at home, she went out clubbing with a man she had barely known. She has shown reckless judgment, and we believe she is not capable of providing the stable environment this child needs.”Ariana’s face immediately went pale. Her hands trembled as she reached for Elena’s arm. “That’s not true,” she whispered desperately. “Elena, that’s not what happened.”Elena slowly pulled her arm away and gave her a warning look. “Stop panicking,” she muttered. “Let me do my
