Chapter 9 - The Truth Unravels
James towered over the sweeping grand staircase, his massive frame radiating the untouchable, ruthless authority of an apex predator who had just discovered the identity of his true enemies.
His brilliant, highly analytical mind instantly pieced the entire, devastating puzzle together.

They had intentionally framed the innocent woman James loved, completely destroying his heart so that years later, they could successfully manipulate the broken, grieving mafia boss into a highly lucrative marriage alliance with their own toxic daughter.
