The scandal destroyed her family's name, shattered her dreams, and left her to bear the brunt of public humiliation.

As she reluctantly steps back into the courtroom, the past simmers between them. Nathaniel is haunted by guilt and drawn to the woman he abandoned. Evelyn speaks only when required, avoids the past, and focuses on justice - but her silence screams louder than words. What begins as a legal battle turns into an emotional reckoning. Regret. Redemption. And a slow-burn connection that neither of them expected. Because sometimes, the most powerful verdicts aren't spoken in court - they're written in the heart.Complete

Her eyes were wary and scared. He asked for her name. "Nikola", she whispered in thick Italian accent. Her voice was full of anguish and despair . "Are you the dead man's daughter?" Brent asked the young woman whose exotic beauty was covered with sweat, tears and great fear. She shook her head and mumbled, "Wife". There's a pang of regret that stuck in his throat. In that moment of disbelief, he immediately erased that first impression to console a bereaved woman. Whoever believes in love at first? Such foolishness should be deleted off his mind. His feelings must not cloud his judgement. He must act in accordance to his job even if it's his first time to admire a woman after 3 years in solitude. Did she kill her husband? That's the question he must unravel before focusing on his own personal motive.Complete
