CHAPTER 3 — The Woman Who Knew Too Much
Victoria was arrested temporarily for questioning.
But Marcus discovered something much bigger.
The staircase attack was only the beginning.
Elena had secretly been investigating Victoria for months.
Because strange things had been happening.
Missing documents.
Changed bank accounts.
Anonymous threats.
And one terrifying discovery.
Victoria was connected to Elena’s husband's disappearance.
Three years earlier, Elena’s husband Daniel had vanished after discovering illegal business deals involving the family.
Everyone believed he abandoned her.
But Elena never believed that.
She found a hidden message inside Daniel’s old watch.
A message only she could understand.
"Trust nobody inside the mansion."
Marcus looked at Elena.
“You knew?”
She nodded.
“I knew someone was hiding the truth.”
“Why didn’t you tell the police?”
Elena looked at her unborn child.
“Because I needed proof.”
Marcus respected her courage.
But then he found something shocking.
A second name appeared in the documents.
Not Victoria.

Someone Elena trusted.
