Chapter 3 – Every Lie Collapses

Chapter 3 – Every Lie Collapses

Outside the operating room...

Marcus waited alone.

Every minute felt like an hour.

His head of security approached with another folder.

"Sir, we completed a full review."

Marcus looked up.

"What else?"

The investigator opened the file.

"Ms. Rossi visited the hospital three times this month without authorization."

"She repeatedly requested information about Mrs. Thorne's appointments."

"There are also messages recovered from her phone."

Marcus took the documents.

One message made his blood run cold.

Once she loses the baby, he'll never forgive her.

Another read:

Tonight ends everything.

Marcus closed the folder.

He no longer saw Isabella as the woman he had once admired.

He saw someone who had planned every step.

Minutes later, police detectives arrived.

The surveillance footage was played once more.

Every shove.

Every kick.

Every lie.

When the recording ended, one detective stood.

"Ms. Isabella Rossi..."

"You are under arrest for aggravated assault resulting in serious bodily injury and for offenses related to the attack on a pregnant woman."

Handcuffs clicked around her wrists.

She looked desperately toward Marcus.

"Please... I love you."

Marcus's expression never changed.

"No."

"You only loved what you thought you could take."

As officers escorted her away, reporters outside the hospital had already received confirmation of the arrest.

Within hours, every major news outlet carried the same headline.
