CHAPTER 4: The Choice That Changes Everything
That night, alone in his holding cell, Victor finally saw it.
Not the power.
Not the money.
But the cost.
Every betrayal. Every manipulation.
Every person he thought he controlled.
They weren’t gone.
They were waiting.
And now… they were coming back.
The door opened.
The young woman stepped in again.
No guards.
No cameras.
Just them.
“You still have one move left,” she said.
Victor looked up. “And why would I help you?”
She paused.
Then said the one thing he never expected:
“Because she didn’t want revenge.”
Silence.
Victor’s voice dropped.
“What did she want?”

The answer came softly—
“Justice.”
