All Chapters of The Return Of The Betrayed Bride : Chapter 481 - Chapter 490

Judge Morrison struck his gavel. “Court is now in session. We are here to hear the motion to overturn Amelia Stone’s conviction. Ms. Rossi, you may proceed.”Valeria stood and faced the judge. “Your Honor, Amelia Stone was convicted based on manipulated evidence and false testimony. We now have financial records showing payments to witnesses, phone records linking the accused, and evidence that the original investigation was deliberately mishandled.”Adrian Moretti rose immediately. “Your Honor, the defense objects. Ms. Rossi is turning this courtroom into a public spectacle with unproven allegations.”Valeria glanced at him. “If bank records and phone records are allegations, Mr. Moretti, I wonder what you consider evidence.”A few people in the courtroom chuckled. Adrian’s smile tightened.“Evidence must be properly authenticated,” he replied. “And I intend to challenge every document she presents.”“Then you’ll have plenty to do,” Valeria said.Judge Morrison raised his hand. “Enou

Gabriella stared at the entrance, her face drained of color. Her lips parted, but no sound came out. Beside her, Marisa gripped the table, trembling so badly that her chair scraped against the floor.“You told me she was dead,” Marisa whispered to Gabriella, horror spreading across her face. “You told me she would never come back.”Gabriella shook her head frantically. “I thought she was gone!”Then Clara Morales appeared.She walked into the courtroom with her head held high, looking nothing like the frightened maid who had disappeared months earlier. She was calm, composed, and ready to face the people who had ruined her life.Gabriella’s eyes widened. She opened her mouth, but the words refused to come. Adrian leaned toward her, whispering urgently, but she barely seemed to hear him.Clara walked to the witness stand without looking at either woman.Valeria watched Gabriella’s trembling hands before turning to the judge. “Your Honor, I ask that the witness be sworn in.”“Proceed,”

“That devil incarnate tried to kill me!” Clara cried, pointing straight at Gabriella.The courtroom burst into whispers. Several people turned toward Gabriella, who jumped to her feet with a furious look. “You’re lying!” she screamed. “You’re making up stories because you want to save yourself!”Judge Morrison slammed his gavel. “Sit down, Mrs. Favino! This is a courtroom, not your living room. If you interrupt the witness again, I’ll have you removed!”Gabriella dropped into her chair, muttering angrily under her breath.Clara took a deep breath and continued. “Gabriella paid me fifty thousand dollars to leave the country and go to Greece. She even booked an Uber to take me to the airport. Before I left, she warned me never to contact anyone connected to the Favino family again.”Valeria leaned forward, watching Clara carefully. “Why did you agree to leave? Were you afraid of what Gabriella might do if you stayed?”“I was terrified. I knew too much, and after what happened to Amelia,

“Or what? You’ll have me arrested too? Forge my signature and send me to prison?” He stepped closer, his eyes burning with hatred. “You’ve spent your entire life acting like a queen, but now everyone can see what you really are: a bitter old woman who would rather destroy her own family than admit she’s wrong!”Marisa opened her mouth, but Alejandro cut her off.“Save your breath. I’ve heard enough of your poison to last a lifetime. You can spend the rest of your life screaming at prison walls, blaming everyone else for your misery, and wondering why nobody gives a damn about you. You earned every second of it!”Alejandro turned away from his mother, his chest rising and falling with anger. “And when you finally realize your own son wants nothing to do with you, remember this: you didn’t lose your family because of Amelia. You lost us because you’re a wicked, selfish woman who never deserved the love we gave you!”“Enough, Mr. Alejandro Favino!” Judge Morrison barked, striking his gav

Gabriella broke down, desperately reaching for him, but he stepped away.Marisa turned toward her son.“Alejandro, don’t speak to your wife like that!”He swung around, his face twisted with fury. “Will you shut your pathetic mouth, Mother? You’re a deranged, controlling psycho! Now I understand why Miguel kept his wife away from you for years. He knew exactly what kind of woman you were!”Marisa’s expression faltered. “You have just been sentenced to ten years in prison, and you’re still trying to control everyone around you! You framed Amelia, destroyed my marriage, and ruined lives because you couldn’t stand the thought of not having your way. And you still think you have the right to lecture me?”“I did everything for this family!” Marisa protested.“No. You did everything for yourself!”The words silenced her. For the first time, Marisa seemed to understand that she had lost more than her freedom. She had lost her son’s trust, and no amount of shouting could force him to give it b
