Chapter 3: Cracks in the Illusion
Back at the mansion, reality settled in like a storm.
Sophie paced the room. “You said you were untouchable!”
“I was!” Lucas shouted. “Until she—”
“Until she what?” Sophie cut in. “Until your wife turned out to own your entire life?!”
Richard poured another drink with shaking hands. “We underestimated her…”
Helen whispered, “We humiliated her…”
Lucas clenched his fists.
“No,” he said, eyes burning. “This isn’t over.”
But deep down, he knew.
It was.
Because for the first time—
He had no leverage.
No power.

No control.
And no Isabella.
