CHAPTER 1: THE TRUTH BEHIND THE LIES
The mansion was silent after the shocking truth was revealed.
The woman in the red dress, Victoria, stood frozen in the middle of the room.
For years, she had controlled everything inside those walls.
She had convinced everyone that she was powerful.
Untouchable.
But now, the security footage had exposed the reality.
The man in the black suit, Daniel, stared at the screen as the video replayed every cruel moment.
His pregnant wife, Emma, lying helpless on the floor.
Victoria hurting her.
Victoria laughing.
Victoria pretending to be the victim.
Daniel's hands tightened into fists.
He had trusted Victoria for years because she was his late father's business partner.
He never imagined the person closest to his family could be capable of such cruelty.
"How could you do this?" Daniel asked coldly.
Victoria's confidence disappeared.
"Daniel... please, I can explain."
But Daniel shook his head.
"No explanation can erase what you did."
At that moment, Emma opened her eyes weakly.
"Daniel..."
He immediately rushed to her side.
"I'm here. You're safe now."
For the first time that day, Emma felt protected.

But Daniel knew this was only the beginning.
Because Victoria was not the type of person who accepted defeat easily.
