Chapter 5: The Trial of a Broken Promise
Six months later, Adrian Cross stood inside a courtroom.
No expensive suit.
No confident smile.
No powerful friends.
Only a man facing the consequences of his own choices.
The prosecutor played the recording again.
The same voice that once whispered about stealing Isabellaâs future now exposed him in front of the entire world.
When Adrian looked at Isabella, he expected hatred.
But she only looked disappointed.
âYou didnât break my heart because you wanted my money.â
She paused.
âYou broke my heart because you convinced me your love was real.â
Adrian lowered his head.
For the first timeâŠ
he had nothing to say.
The judge delivered the sentence.
Adrian and Victor were found guilty of fraud and conspiracy.
