Chapter 8 - The Unmasked Fraudster

The screen displayed a mugshot of Jimena from six years ago, alongside a different name: Valerie Ramos.

"Jimena Torres doesn't exist," Santiago revealed, his voice echoing through the speakers. "Her real name is Valerie Ramos. She is a convicted corporate spy who served two years in state prison for extracting funds from wealthy executives in Miami."

Gasps of horror erupted through the ballroom. The wealthy socialites who had welcomed Jimena into their inner circles recoiled in disgust.

Gonzalo stared at Jimena as if she were a venomous snake. "You... you were using a fake name?! The real estate I bought for you...!"

"Is officially seized by the federal government as proceeds of crime," the lead police detective announced, walking up to the table.

Jimena broke into hysterical sobs, grabbing Gonzalo’s suit jacket. "Gonzalo, baby, listen to me! I loved you! I did it for us!"
