CHAPTER 6: A Different Ending

Victor Hale didnât expect resistance.
He didnât expect evidence.
And he certainly didnât expect the bride and groom to turn against him.
With Lilaâs testimony, Isabellaâs confession, and Ethanâs resources, the truth was exposed. Victorâs empire collapsed overnight.
Arrests followed.
Secrets burned in daylight.

No guests.
No masks.
Just truth.

âNo more poison. No more fear.â
And as they walked forwardânot as perfect lovers, but as survivorsâtheir story didnât end in tragedy.
