Chapter 6 - The Truth Comes OutThe case became public.
The evidence was overwhelming.
The recording.
My medical records.
The destroyed camera.
The financial documents.
The forged statements.
And the messages between Julian and Evelyn.
Investigators discovered they had been planning to force me out of the house for months.
They had even researched my life insurance policy.
That discovery nearly broke me.
Sarah sat beside me.
"They wanted you dead."
I stared at the floor.
"And Lily?"
"She was collateral."
I felt sick.
That night, I sat beside Lily's incubator.
She was stronger now.
Her breathing had improved.
I touched the glass.
"Mommy's here."
Her tiny fingers moved.
I cried.
Not from fear.
From relief.
Julian tried to negotiate.
He offered information.
He blamed Evelyn.
Evelyn blamed Julian.
Neither wanted responsibility.
But the evidence connected them.
Emails showed they had discussed the house.
Bank records showed Evelyn had received money.
And one message from Julian read:
Once she signs, we can finally sell.
There was no misunderstanding.
No accident.
No emotional outburst.

It was a plan.
And they had nearly killed me for it.
