Chapter 2 – A Hidden Witness
Minutes later, hotel security rushed into the penthouse after hearing the commotion.
The wedding guests gathered outside in stunned silence.
Nathan ordered everyone to leave except the hotel manager.
"I want every security recording from this floor."
Vanessa's confidence didn't waver.
"It won't change anything."
But fifteen minutes later...
The manager returned carrying a tablet.

The footage showed Vanessa entering the bridal suite nearly forty minutes before Olivia arrived.
She connected her phone to the Bluetooth speaker.

Nathan frowned.

"It's ready," she whispered.
"Once the recording plays, he'll never forgive her."
The room fell silent.
Nathan slowly turned toward Vanessa.
"What recording were you preparing?"
