CHAPTER 4 — The Betrayal Inside The Family
The mansion became a place of suspicion.
Everyone was questioned.
The servants.
The relatives.
The business partners.
Then Marcus revealed the truth.
“The person helping Victoria was not a stranger.”
Everyone turned.
The door opened.
Elena froze.
Standing there was her own brother, Adrian.
The person who had comforted her after Daniel disappeared.
The person who told her Victoria was innocent.
The person she trusted most.
“Why?” Elena whispered.
Adrian looked away.
“I had no choice.”
Marcus placed another file on the table.
“You chose money over your own sister.”
The truth was painful.
Adrian had helped hide financial crimes.
He had helped erase evidence.
And he had helped Victoria keep control of the family empire.
Elena felt betrayed.
But she refused to collapse.
Because now she understood.
The attack was never about anger.

It was about fear.
They were afraid because Elena was getting closer to the truth.
