He looked at her with a mix of shock and jealousy. “You’re trusting Julian Forster with this?”

“Without hesitation,” Jade replied, her voice firm and uncompromising.

Hudson was vibrating with a restless, toxic energy, pacing in tight circles.

“What makes him so special? Why does he deserve your faith over mine?”

“His character is irrelevant,” Jade said, her knuckles turning white as she spoke.

“But he hasn’t tried to kill me, and he’ll provide a truth that isn’t filtered through your bias!”

Hudson’s face turned into a mask of pure, unadulterated fury.

“What are you implying, Jade?”

“It’s not an implication; it’s a statement of fact.”

“He is the only one offering me justice. Should I trust you? The man who protects my attacker?”

Hudson wanted to remind her of their vows, but his own guilt was a heavy weight.

Before he could speak, Jade leveled a look of pure contempt at him.

“Should I trust the man who hasn’t given me a single ounce of respect in three years?

“Amara wants me in a grave, and you’re her shield. Your words are worthless to me.”

Jade’s voice broke for a split second as she recalled the misery of her marriage.

“The divorce filings have been sent. The court will process them by morning. I’ll see you at City Hall.”

Hudson saw the absolute resolve in her eyes and felt a sudden, sharp pain in his chest. “Is this really how you want to end us, Jade?”

“Is this my choice?” Jade laughed bitterly. “You and Amara are the ones who pushed me into

this corner.”

“I’ve told you-if you would just stay the course as my wife-”

“That role is dead to me.” Jade wiped a stray tear and turned her back on him.

“And I will never be your puppet again.”

That final sentence felt like a death knell in Hudson’s ears, leaving him reeling.

He stood paralyzed on the pavement as she walked away, a ghost of the life they once shared.

Jade didn’t look back; she went straight to her desk and began uploading the evidence.

Amara had played her games for too long, assuming Jade was a helpless victim.

Tonight, Jade was burning the whole facade to the ground and letting the public decide.

The following morning, Hudson confronted Amara at her villa, the evidence in his hand.

Amara emerged from the house, her heart hammering against her ribs as she saw his expression.

He threw the photograph of her and Lyndon onto the table with a look of disgust.

“Explain this. Ronald hasn’t been gone for two months and you’re with this man?”

Amara collapsed as if her legs had been cut from under her, tears flooding her eyes.

“Lyndon… he… he’s a monster, Hudson!”

She sobbed hysterically, her voice thick with what looked like genuine trauma.

“I don’t know how you got that photo, but he coerced me! He forced himself on me!”

“Coerced?”

Hudson’s eyes narrowed into dangerous slits. “Tell me exactly how.”

Amara lowered her head, her words coming out in broken, jagged gasps.
