Chapter 5: The Woman Who Refused to Break
Six months later, Julian stood inside a prison courtroom awaiting sentencing.
The judge reviewed thousands of pages of evidence before delivering a sentence that ensured Julian would spend the rest of his life behind bars.
As officers escorted him away, he turned toward Evelyn.
"You ruined everything."
She looked at him without anger.

With that, she walked away from the cameras, leaving behind the wealth, the lies, and the nightmare that had defined her past.
