Chapter 6 - Tearing Down the Abuser

The police officers yanked Julian up from the floor, forcing him to stand before his wife and mother-in-law.

Julian looked pathetic, his white shirt ripped, his face covered in sweat and tears, his dark hair disheveled as he looked at Maya with desperate, weeping eyes.

"Maya... please! Tell your mother to stop!" Julian whimpered, his former arrogant demeanor completely destroyed. "I'll give the money back! Every single cent! We can go to marriage counseling! Don't let them take me to prison!"

Maya looked at him with an expression of cool, absolute detachment. There was no fear left in her eyes—only profound disgust for the monster she had once trusted.

"You didn't care about our family when you raised your hand against me, Julian," Maya said, her calm voice cutting through his sobs. "And you didn't care about your daughter when you stole her future. You belong in a cage."

Maya reached up, unclasped the expensive diamond necklace Julian had bought her to buy her silence after every violent outburst, and dropped it onto the floor at his feet.

The Grandmother stepped forward, looking down at Julian with quiet, absolute contempt.

"You challenged the wrong grandmother," the older officer whispered, her words ringing with finality.
