Chapter 6 — The Sister Who Begged for Forgiveness

Inés found me outside the courthouse.
The woman who once tore my shirt apart in front of hundreds of people…
Was now crying.
“Eva, please.”
I kept walking.
She grabbed my arm.
“I was wrong.”
I looked at her hand.
The same hand that exposed my scars.
The same hand that tried to destroy me.
“You weren't cruel because you believed the lie.”
I removed her hand.
“You were cruel because you enjoyed it.”
Her tears stopped.
Because she knew I was right.
But then she whispered:
“Carlos was the one who convinced father.”
I turned.
“What?”
Inés revealed the final secret.
Carlos had manipulated everyone.
He wanted my father’s company.
He created the explosion plan.
And Arturo helped cover it afterward.

My own family had not simply abandoned me.
They had erased me.
