Chapter 7 - The Security Footage
Vincent taps the tablet held by his bodyguard, pressing play on a video file.
Julian’s own voice echoes through the marble bathroom from the high-definition audio speaker—arrogant, cruel, and menacing.
The security camera footage shows Julian cornering Lena in the hallway hours earlier, ripping her arm, smashing her phone, and boasting about how he controlled the local police department.
"Look at that face, Julian," Vincent says, pointing to the screen. "You were quite proud of yourself."
Julian looks at the screen, then at Lena, his face pale as paper. "That... that was edited! She provoked me! She was trying to ruin my reputation!"
"She didn't need to ruin your reputation," Lena says, standing up slowly against the marble counter, her eyes cold and sharp. "You destroyed it yourself the moment you thought you were invincible."
