After three years of pursuing Patrick Doyle, he finally agrees to marry me.
During the ceremony, while we are exchanging rings, he suddenly pulls out his gun and presses the muzzle against my dad, Jacob Walker's, head.
"Damn you, you evil drug dealer! You killed my mentor, badge number 66205. Put down your gun and surrender. I'll let you live."
As soon as he finishes, his sister, Lena Doyle, screams. It startles Patrick, and he fires without hesitation.
A bullet pierces through Dad's forehead, and his body crashes down into a pool of blood. His eyes remain wide open even in death.
My white wedding dress is soaked through with blood.
Just like that, my family is shattered. I go from being a wealthy heiress in Hinton to the daughter of a criminal.
Patrick gets his honors while my family lies in ruins.
He looks at me in his uniform, his eyes cold. "Ariana Walker, your dad may be a criminal, but you're innocent. We're married now. I'll ask them to go easy on you."
I look down and hold tight to the badge Dad left behind.
Who's really guilty here?
