Chapter 2: A Web of Lies
An hour later...
Khloe was in emergency surgery.
Marcus stood outside the operating room, unable to look away from the red warning light above the doors.
His phone rang nonstop.
Board members.
Friends.
Reporters.
He ignored them all.
Then Dr. Bennett approached with a tablet in his hand.
"You need to see this."
The security footage played.
There was no argument.
No struggle.
Khloe had tried to walk away.
Isabella followed.
She shoved her once.
Then again.
Finally...
She deliberately drove the heel of her stiletto into Khloe's side.
Marcus watched without blinking.
When the video ended, he quietly asked,
"Is there anything else?"
Dr. Bennett nodded.
"We reviewed the last three weeks of security footage from every charity event hosted here."
Clip after clip appeared.
Isabella deliberately cornering Khloe.
Whispering insults.
Trying to provoke public confrontations.
Following Marcus whenever cameras appeared.
It wasn't a single outburst.
It was a calculated campaign.
Just then, detectives arrived.
One of them addressed Isabella.
"Miss Rossi..."
"You are under arrest on suspicion of aggravated assault resulting in serious bodily injury."
She laughed nervously.
"This is ridiculous."
"My father owns half the city."
The detective calmly replied,
"Your father's influence doesn't erase video evidence."
As officers placed handcuffs on her wrists...
The photographers outside captured everything.
For the first time in years...

Isabella wasn't posing for the cameras.
She was hiding from them.
