Chapter 11 - VICTORIA'S LAST CHOICE Victoria had always believed herself untouchable.

Her father's money had protected her.

Her beauty had opened doors.

Her marriage to Mateo would have secured her future.

But now she sat in a dark warehouse, realizing she had become disposable.

Silas had never loved her.

She was merely another asset.

When Isabella arrived at the exchange point, Victoria was waiting.

Mateo and Adrian stayed hidden.

Isabella stepped forward alone.

"You wanted me."

Victoria laughed bitterly.

"You stole everything from me."

"I never had anything that belonged to you."

Victoria's expression cracked.

"Your family destroyed mine."

"No."

Isabella's voice was calm.

"You destroyed yourself."

Silas's men appeared.

Then Victoria saw something.

A tiny camera hidden in Isabella's coat.

Victoria understood.

This wasn't an exchange.

It was a trap.

She suddenly turned toward Silas's men.

"Your father plans to kill me too."

The men hesitated.

Victoria continued.

"He told me himself."

Silas had made one mistake.

He had underestimated how desperate a betrayed woman could become.

Victoria revealed the location of another safe house.

And in exchange, she asked for protection.

Mateo stepped out.

"You'll testify."

Victoria looked at him.

"And if I do?"

"Your life is spared."

She laughed bitterly.

"You really think I deserve mercy?"

Mateo answered:

"No."

He looked at Isabella.

"But she does."

Isabella nodded.

Victoria finally surrendered.

The war had begun turning against Silas.
