He hesitated for a second, then added, his voice low and heavy, “She jumped off a building. Two days ago.”

The moment those words came through the phone, it was like the blood drained from Kaia’s body.

Her fingers went numb. The phone slipped from her hand and hit the ground with a dull thud.

Lucien saw her face pale and immediately tensed. “What happened?”

Kaia’s eyes were already rimmed red. Her voice was barely steady.

“Take me back to the firm. Now.”

Jude looked at Kaia–hollow–eyed, dazed–and something in his expression softened.

“This wasn’t your fault,” he said gently. “Theresa didn’t jump because of you. Don’t let it cat you alive.”

He paused, then added, voice low, “Her son didn’t make it. He passed. That same night… she jumped. Off the roof of Stonemont Medical Center.

“The hospital’s trying to keep it quiet. If this blows up, heads will roll–up and down the chain.”

Kaia shot to her feel, eyes blazing. “They want to bury it? Are you kidding me?”

Her voice rose, trembling with fury.

“If Clyde and his people hadn’t been running that place without a license, William wouldn’t have ended up in a coma!

“It was medical exploitation, Jude. Plain and simple. They pushed unnecessary treatments just to line their pockets.

“There was no reason for surgery, and they still made that kid go under the knife–in a clinic that didn’t even have the capacity for

it!”

She took a shaky breath, chest heaving. “I’m going to get justice

for Theresa.”

Two lives–gone. And no one was taking responsibility. Kaia couldn’t stand it.

Jude’s tone turned quiet, almost pleading.

“If this turns into a scandal, it’s not just the hospital that’ll

suffer. You will too. You’re a lawyer, Kaia. You can’t let emotion take the wheel.”

Kaia wiped at her eyes, furious and heartbroken. “So we just let it go?”

Jude exhaled hard. “Theresa didn’t have much family left. A nephew flew in, took care of the paperwork. Had both her and William cremated. Their ashes were scattered at sea.”

Kaia stared at the trending page. Just moments ago, the story had been ranked number one, but now it had already dropped to thirtieth.

Even when she clicked in, there wasn’t much traction left. Most people were still confused about what had happened, and all the high–engagement posts had already been taken down.

All the way there, Kaia’s mind kept going back to those days she spent by Theresa’s side. The dying boy on the hospital bed, and the exhausted mother who still clung to a shred of determination and hope.

Kaia said, “We can’t just let this slide. The hospital management needs to issue a proper statement. I refuse to believe justice means nothing anymore.

“If no one speaks up, what happens next? That group of unlicensed doctors will just change their name and keep making money off people’s lives. And there’ll be more people like Theresa.”

Watching Kaia, still burning with the fire of someone new to the profession, Jude felt a mix of pride and concern.

He admired her conviction–her refusal to look the other way. But deep down, he worried.

In a world like this, being that bold could mean making the

Wrong enemies and turning an already difficult path into an impossible one.

He hesitated before suggesting, “Maybe you should give Mr. Graves a call?”

Kaia shook her head. “No need. I can handle this myself.”

She then logged into her X account and posted a detailed account of everything that had happened, along with all the evidence, including the disciplinary notice against the doctor for illegal practice. Jude followed up with his own post soon after.

Both of them had made brief appearances on the show Beckoning Offer: Lawyers Edition, so they already had some public recognition.

The fact that they spoke out together gave their posts real weight, and the topic shot right back to the top of the trending list.

Kayla called Kaia shortly after. Once Kayla understood the full situation, she immediately shared the post, and the public

outrage spread fast.

The next day, the director of Stonemont Medical Center reached out to Kaia.

They had originally used their connections to suppress the trending story, only for Kaia and Jude’s posts to bring it roaring back. Left with no other option, they came to negotiate.

“Was it really necessary to blow this out of proportion, Ms. Domont?” the director asked. “The boy is gone, you know.”

Kaia locked eyes with the hospital director, fire burning in her gaze. He wore a white coat, but there was nothing clean about the corruption it covered.

Her voice was ice.

“So now that he’s gone, he doesn’t deserve justice? What you’ve done is disgusting. I’m giving you one chance–issue a public apology. Online. And include the name of the doctor responsible.”

The director didn’t flinch. Instead, he calmly slid a card across the table.

“No need to get worked up, Ms. Domont. There’s two hundred thousand dollars on that card. Let this go… and it’s yours.”

Kaia gave the card a cold glance, then let out a sharp, humorless

laugh.

“Do I look like I need the money?” she said flatly. “But thanks. You just handed me another piece of evidence.”

The moment she got back, she uploaded the audio recording- Stonemont Medical Center’s attempt to buy her silence.

The scandal exploded online within hours.

Public outrage came fast and loud. Officials scrambled to issue statements, promising a full investigation and serious

consequences.

Kaia didn’t stop there. She tagged every relevant government account, publicly calling them out–reminding them to release the results once the investigation was complete.

She made it very clear: she’d be watching.

The official results came faster than expected–likely because the pressure from public opinion had grown too loud to ignore.

Stonemont Medical Center was ordered to shut down for

internal review.

Clyde was formally charged with practicing medicine without a license.

It didn’t bring the victims back, but it was something. A piece of

Kaia stood by the sea, hands clasped in front of her, head bowed toward the still, endless water.

“Theresa,” she whispered, “I hope you and William can rest in peace now.”

When she finished paying her respects, Lucien wrapped an arm around her and gently led her away.

He glanced at her face, clouded with grief, and frowned. She’d been in a slump lately. He’d hoped she’d take more time off–but she wouldn’t even consider it.

As far as Kaia was concerned, she’d already used up her fair share of time off.

And truthfully, she didn’t want any.

Staying busy was the only way to keep her mind from spiraling.

Losing two innocent lives had forced her to face a hard truth- she wasn’t ready. Not yet. Not really.

If Theresa had gotten the compensation she deserved in time, maybe things wouldn’t have ended like this.

Now, Kaia was more determined than ever to grow. To get better -faster. To become the kind of lawyer people could count on

Before the scandal broke, Alex had tried to get Jude to talk her

out of it.

But now? Now it was everywhere.

The fallout was real.

And it hit–hard.
