Chapter 1: The Cameras Never Lied
Marcus dropped to his knees beside Khloe, his hands trembling as he reached for her.
"Khloe... stay with me."
She winced in pain but kept both arms wrapped around her swollen belly.
"Our baby..." she whispered.
Doctors and nurses rushed into the suite moments before Dr. Richard Bennett arrived. The respected hospital director froze when he recognized his niece lying on the floor.
"What happened?"
Before anyone could answer, Isabella burst into tears.
"She attacked me! I only defended myself!"
Richard looked at the shattered glass, the overturned marble table, and Khloe's bruised body.
Then he slowly lifted his eyes toward the security camera mounted above the suite door.
"Seal every security recording immediately."
Isabella's face lost its color.
"No... the cameras weren't working..."
Richard calmly replied,
"They've been upgraded this week. Every second was recorded."

Marcus stood frozen, realizing he had almost believed the wrong woman.
