Chapter 13 – The Truth Before Everyone

Police officers surrounded the mansion.

Guests waited outside behind security barriers.

Detective Daniel Brooks stepped out of an unmarked vehicle.

Grace ran toward him.

"I'm Grace Moreno."

"Emma told me to find you."

She handed him the journal.

His face changed immediately.

"I've been looking for this for six years."

Grace quickly explained everything.

Oliver.

The basement.

The hidden tunnel.

The doctor.

The forged confession.

Daniel wasted no time.

He ordered officers to secure every exit.

Inside the ballroom, Nathan stood surrounded by confused board members.

Isabella maintained her flawless smile.

"We should remain calm."

"This is simply a misunderstanding."

Before anyone could respond...

The ballroom doors burst open.

Oliver walked inside holding Grace's hand.

The room fell completely silent.

Nathan stared at his son.

For several seconds...

He couldn't speak.

Then tears filled his eyes.

"Oliver..."

The boy ran into his father's arms.

Nathan collapsed to his knees while holding him.

"I thought I'd lost you forever."

Across the room...

Isabella slowly stepped backward.

Detective Brooks raised the flash drive.

"We have the recording."

"We also found the hidden room."

Every guest turned toward Isabella.

Her perfect smile finally disappeared.
