Chapter 90: Free The Witch
April shot to her feet, her voice shaking. “She’s lying! Lena was the mastermind! She threatened my son, told me to stay quiet or he’d die!”Lyle raised a hand, calming April. “Your Honor, Ms. Carter’s testimony is consistent, but without direct evidence tying Lena to Morales, it’s her word against his.”Elliot seized the moment, his voice rising. “Exactly! No proof linking my client to this crime. Morales’s confession clears Ms. Aston. The charges against her should be dropped!”The judge’s eyes narrowed, scanning the room. “Mr. Morales, you claim Ms. Aston wasn’t involved. Do you have evidence?”Morales nodded, pulled a folded photo from his pocket, and passed it to Lyle. “This. It’s Blackson, handing me the cash and papers. Alone. No one else.”The screen above the judge lit up, showing a grainy image: Mrs. Blackson in a dark alley, slipping an envelope to Morales. Lena was nowhere in sight. The crowd gasped, whispers erupting. Mrs. Blackson collapsed, sobbing. “Lena, how could you
Chapter 89: It Is Over?
Lena’s heart jumped. So soon? The recess was barely thirty minutes in. She stood, her legs shaky, as Vark’s men cuffed her again, dragging her back to the courtroom. Mrs. Blackson followed, sobbing, while Richard and White were left behind, their faces grim.The courtroom was a furnace, hotter than before, the crowd thicker, the air buzzing with anticipation. Reporters leaned forward, pens flying, cameras locked in on the defendant’s box as they hoped to capture every single moment. Dominic was still in the back, unaware of what to do. But at this point, he knew his hatred for Rowan was steadily increasing. He needed to end the guy once and for all time. Lena caught his eye, a flicker of hope, but his nod was gone, replaced by a look of defeat. Her lawyer, Elliot Hayes, stood ready, his face tight, like he knew the tide was against them.The judge banged her gavel, silencing the room. “Court is back in session. We’ve reviewed the tattoo evidence, and forensic analysis confirms Mr. Ka
Chapter 88: Threat From Hell
Lena Aston stood frozen in the defendant’s box, her wrists raw from the cuffs, her heart pounding like a war drum. The courtroom was a pressure cooker — reporters scribbling, cameras humming, whispers crawling up. Mrs. Blackson, her ally at Obsidian, trembled beside her, whispering prayers through tear-streaked cheeks. Across the room, Rowan Kane stood in his prison jumpsuit, his eyes a blade slicing through her. Victoria Lang sat behind him, her midnight-blue gown catching the light, her silver hair coiled like a crown. The judge, a stern woman with gray hair and sharper eyes, leaned forward, her gavel poised. The air was thick, ready to snap.Margaret Lyle, April Carter’s lawyer, had just called Mr. Granger to the stand. Lena’s head snapped up, her stomach twisting. Granger, Obsidian’s CEO, her supposed ally, walked forward, his suit crisp, his steps too calm. He swore in, his voice steady, almost smug. “Greetings,” he said, his eyes skimming the room but dodging Lena’s glare.Ly
Chapter 87: The Tattoo And The Traitor
Lena Aston stood frozen in the defendant’s box, her wrists raw from the cuffs. Her heart was pounding like a war drum. The courtroom was a pressure cooker — reporters writing, cameras clicking, whispers crawling up as the inferno in the court room intensified. Mrs. Blackson trembled beside her, whispering prayers through tear-streaked cheeks. She didn't want to go to prison at all. Not now, not ever!Across the room, however, Rowan Kane stood in his prison jumpsuit, his eyes a blade slicing through her. Victoria Lang sat behind him, her midnight-blue gown catching the light, her silver hair coiled like a crown. The judge, a stern woman with gray hair and sharper eyes, leaned forward, her gavel poised.

Chapter 86: The Courtroom Inferno
Lena Aston stood in the defendant’s box, her wrists aching in cuffs, her heart hammering like a trapped animal. The courtroom air was thick, heavy with whispers and the weight of a hundred plus eyes boring into her. Mrs. Blackson sobbed beside her, her hands trembling. She was a broken mess, her face streaked with mascara. The judge’s voice cut through the haze, sharp and cold.“Order! We’re here for the case of Lena Aston, Mrs. Blackson, Richard Voss, Mr. White, and Obsidian Tech, charged with conspiracy, framing, and supporting sexual assault against April Carter. Representing the defendants, Mr. Elliot Hayes. In opposition, for Ms. April Carter, we have Ms. Margaret Lyle and… Mr. Rowan Kane.”Lena’s blood turned to ice. She stared at Rowan, her ex-husband, standing on April’s side in a faded orange jumpsuit, his cuffs glinting under the courtroom lights. His eyes locked on hers — cold, unyielding. It was as if a storm was ready to break. A storm she was not prepared for.How was h
Chapter 85: Too High A Price
The prison visiting room smelled of bleach and despair, a cold concrete box with flickering fluorescent lights and a scratched metal table bolted to the floor.Jason Cole sat on one side, his tailored jacket out of place, his hands clenched so tight his knuckles were white.He had used his power to get here to see Priyanka. The woman he loved was behind bars, framed for trying to murder Mia, his ex, and the weight of it was crushing him because he wasn’t sure of the truth.He’d been chasing campus camera footage since it happened, desperate to prove her innocence, to try and prove that it wasn’t his babe, but every lead turned cold. Now, staring at the steel door, his heart pounded, not knowing what he’d find on the other side.The door buzzed, creaking open, and there she was — Priyanka, in a faded orange jumpsuit, her dark hair pulled back, her eyes tired but sharp. She moved slowly, like the cuffs on her wrists carried more than metal. The guard shoved her into the chair across fr
