Chapter 6 Blake stared at me in disbelief , something that looked like hurt flashing in his eyes . [ ] " Grace , stop saying things you don't mean . " [ ] " Are you really going to destroy our relationship over this ? " [ Looking at Blake , I couldn't believe how delusional he was . [ ] For ten years , maybe I'd been too understanding , too accommodating . He thought that as long as he was willing to marry me , I'd put up with anything . [ ] Maybe I would have before . But not anymore . [ ] The moment I lost that trial , I knew Blake and I were finished . [] " Blake , the girl who wanted to marry you was the me from ten years ago . Not who I am now . " [ ] For the first time , Blake was seeing how final my decision was . [ ] He completely panicked . [ ] He let go of Scarlett and stepped toward me , trying to pull me into his arms . [ ] " Grace , I promise you - I'll never get involved with Scarlett's problems again . " ]] " We've been together for ten years . Every single day , I've been looking forward to making you my wife . " [] " We survived ten incredibly difficult years together . Are we really going to give up now ? " [ ] This was the first time I'd ever seen Blake look so desperate . [ ] He was practically begging for my forgiveness . [ ] But it was way too late for that . ] Even though Blake managed to shut down the live stream , the footage was already spreading like wildfire across the internet . [ ] The kind of viral spread that even the Harrison family couldn't contain . [ ] Scarlett was hit with a new wave of lawsuits . ] This time , the plaintiffs were thousands of women who'd been secretly filmed . [ ] With that many voices united , Scarlett's case went back to court . ] Outside the courthouse , Marcus Stone stood beside me . [ ] Chapter 5 The moment Blake saw Marcus , his dark eyes flashed with rage . ] ] " Grace , you went behind my back and hired him ? " [ ] I shrugged , smiling as I replied : " You gave me the money , Blake . Why do you care how I spend it ? " [ ] " If you've got time to worry about that , maybe focus on your precious Scarlett instead . " [ ] I walked into the courtroom first . This time , I wasn't the plaintiff - I was a witness . [ ] This time , I was going to make sure Scarlett paid for what she'd done . [ ] " Will the plaintiff's attorney please present evidence ? " ] Marcus submitted our evidence to the court , including Scarlett's login credentials , the exported data , and partnership agreements with various bars and hotels . [ ] " The account was registered overseas , While the name on the registration isn't Scarlett Harrison , we've traced her foreign assets . The registered owner is her property manager abroad . " ] ] H " Additionally , while the signature on these agreements isn't in Scarlett's name , handwriting analysis confirms she signed them . " [ We also submitted footage from the live stream , proving her intent to commit murder . [ ] Faced with this mountain of evidence , every single jury member looked ready to explode with anger . [ ] Scarlett confessed to everything in open court . [ ] I won the case easily . But the easier it was , the more nervous I got .[ ] If the Harrison family had wanted to protect Scarlett , this should have been a brutal fight . ] P Uniess ... They never intended to protect her at all . [ ] When Scarlett was led away , she didn't cry and scream like before . [ ] As if she'd seen this coming all along . " Grace , you were nothing but my replacement . " [ ] I had no idea why Scarlett said that to me . ] But those words definitely stirred something up inside me . [ ] Walking out of the courthouse , I immediately spotted Blake . [ ] He was leaning against his car with his arms crossed , and when he saw me coming , he opened the passenger door . [ ] Chapter 6 " You won ? " ] " Happy now ? " ] " Let's go home . " ] Blake's tone was casual , like nothing had happened . [ ] I stopped dead in my tracks and looked up at him . [ ] " You did this on purpose , didn't you ? " [ ] " You wanted to use me to get rid of Scarlett ? " [ ] ( 0)
