CHAPTER 4: THE NIGHT EVERYTHING COLLAPSED

It happened fast.
Faster than anyone expected.
By morning, Enzo Marino was suspended.
By noon, investigators were involved.
By evening—
The gala headlines had changed.
From celebration…
To scandal.
But Isabella made one final mistake.
She ran.
Not far.
Just enough to confirm guilt.
Security caught her trying to access a private records room.
Destroying evidence.
That was the moment everything ended.
Marcus arrived just as they stopped her.
“You should’ve stayed quiet,” Isabella snapped, desperation cracking through her voice. “You could’ve kept your image—your perfect life—”
“My life was never perfect,” Marcus said.
He stepped closer.
“But it was real.”
He gestured toward the security team.
“And now? It’s documented.”
Isabella laughed bitterly. “You think this ends me?”
Marcus’s expression didn’t change.
“No,” he said. “You did that yourself the moment you believed power made you untouchable.”
She was taken away.
