Chapter 3: The Woman Behind The Perfect Smile
The next morning, I checked everything.
And I found something disturbing.
Victoria had deleted messages from her phone.
But she forgot one thing.
The backup.
I recovered conversations between her and her sister.
And every message made my anger grow.
“She needs to learn her place.”
“Daniel is too attached to that girl.”
“After enough pressure, he will choose his wife.”
I stared at the screen.
Victoria wasn't losing control.
She planned everything.
Then I found something worse.
A hidden camera.
Inside Lily’s room.
My hands started shaking.
Victoria had been watching my daughter.
Recording her.
Controlling her.
That was the moment I stopped seeing her as my wife.
I saw her as a threat.
That evening, I confronted her.
“Why was there a camera in Lily’s room?”
Her face changed.
Only for one second.
But I saw it.
Fear.
“You went through my things?”
“No.”
I placed the phone on the table.
“I found the truth.”
She became quiet.
Then she smiled.
A cold smile.
“You think you can destroy me?”
May you like
I looked at her.
“You already destroyed yourself.”
