A Glamorous Fiancée Poured Ice Water Over a Maid — Until the Syndicate Boss Walked In and Called Off the Wedding

The grand hallway fell into complete, terrifying silence as Valentina stared at Sophia in absolute shock.

"A child..." Valentina stammered, her voice trembling uncontrollably. "A six-year-old kid... you're taking the word of a little girl over mine?"

Lorenzo turned his head slowly toward Sophia, his sharp features tight with sudden, intense focus. "Sophia... tell me what Ella saw."

Sophia wiped a tear from her face, her breathing shaky as she looked Lorenzo straight in the eye. "Yesterday at four o'clock, while I was cleaning the study, Ella was playing quietly behind the velvet armchair. She saw Miss Reachi enter your private office with a small glass vial."

Valentina tried to pull away from the guards, her face twisting in desperation. "She's lying! I was at the spa all afternoon yesterday!"

"Ella drew a picture of what she saw," Sophia continued clearly, her courage rising as she defended her child. "She drew Miss Reachi pouring clear drops into your daily heart medicine bottle. When Miss Reachi noticed Ella's toy under the chair, she locked the study door from the outside and turned off the ventilation system!"

Lorenzo’s fist clenched so tightly that his knuckles turned stark white. He recalled how he had found little Ella unconscious in his locked study yesterday evening, assuming the child had simply wandered in and fainted from heat exhaustion.
