FIVE MONTHS ON...Five months later, the city was still buzzing about Sarah Chen’s downfall. Jessica’s documentary had changed everything—workers were suing, Chen Industries was bankrupt, and Sarah’s name was a joke. But now, Sarah was out on bail, thanks to a slick lawyer who spun her prison beating into a sympathy story. She walked out of jail, her head high, but her eyes burned with rage.In a small, dusty office she’d rented, Sarah sat at a desk, her face still scarred from Carla’s fists.
