Chapter 15 - The Woman Who Took Back Her Life

Months later, the mansion felt different.

No fear.

No silence.

No walking on eggshells.

Lena sat in the same ivory chair.

But this time…

She was smiling.

The broken plate was gone.

The memories remained.

But they no longer controlled her.

Adrian visited often.

Helen and Richard became her strongest supporters.

And Victor’s name became nothing more than a lesson.

A lesson about pride.

A lesson about control.

A lesson about believing someone will stay silent forever.

Lena looked out the window.

She remembered the night she picked up that dark-green phone.

The night Victor finally became afraid.

Because he realized one truth too late.

The woman he thought he owned…

Was the woman who finally ended him.
