Shattering Her Saintly Act: My Second-Chance Showdown novel Chapter 10

Chapter 10 

Julie threw herself at Connor, grabbing his leg. “Please tell me this isn’t real, Connor. It was you that night, wasn’t it? It had to be you! I’m sure Queenie is behind all this! She must have tampered with the footage!” 

Connor didn’t even spare her a glance, kicking her away and saying, “It’s the surveillance footage from the hotel. You can go

No sooner had I finished speaking than Connor beckoned with his hand. His lawyer then came forward and said, “We will be prosecuting you to the full extent of the law, Ms. Sutton.”.
