Chapter 2: The Phone Call She Should Never Have Made
Part 2 👇
Three days later, Vanessa called Marcus.
Her voice was smooth.
Almost calm.
Like nothing had happened.
"I want half.
Half the company, half the accounts, half of everything.
My lawyer says I'm entitled."
Marcus said nothing for a long moment.
Then he laughed.
Low and quiet.
The kind of laugh that doesn't mean anything is funny.
"You should have read what you signed before our wedding, Vanessa."
She froze.
"What are you talking about?"
"The prenuptial agreement.
Every clause.
Including the one about infidelity." He paused.
"You voided it yourself.
In broad daylight.
In front of our daughter."
The line went silent.
Then her voice cracked — sharp and desperate.
"That won't hold up.
My lawyer will—"
"Your lawyer already saw the footage."
Vanessa's breath stopped.
"What footage?"
Marcus's voice dropped to something almost gentle.
Almost.
"The street camera.
The witness statements.
And something else you don't know about yet."
The call ended.
Vanessa stood in her kitchen, her phone still pressed to her ear, the dial tone humming like a countdown.
😶
What was the "something else" Marcus was hiding — and why did her own lawyer go completely silent after seeing it?
