Chapter 2: The Secret Contract
Three days later, Evelyn was recovering in a private hospital room.
Alexander had barely left her side.
Meanwhile, forensic accountants dug through company records.
What they found shocked everyone.
Victoria had secretly created shell companies.
Fake consulting firms.
Hidden bank accounts.
Millions of dollars had already been moved.
But one document stood out.
A prenuptial agreement.
Alexander had never signed it.
Yet somehow his signature appeared on every page.
The experts confirmed the truth.
Forgery.
Victoria had been preparing for months.
She never intended to marry him for love.
She intended to own everything after the wedding.
When police arrived at her luxury penthouse, Victoria was gone.
No luggage.
No phone.
No trace.
The media exploded.
News channels called it the scandal of the year.
But Alexander wasn't thinking about money.
He sat beside his mother's hospital bed.
"I'm sorry," he whispered.
Evelyn smiled weakly.
"You finally saw her."
Alexander lowered his head.
"No."
A tear rolled down his cheek.
"I finally saw you."
For the first time in years, mother and son embraced.
Neither knew it would be their last secret-free conversation.
