“Oscar.”

Her tone softened.

“What actions did Amber Asher take…”

A pause. 1

“…that led to her being removed from the company?”

Oscar inhaled.

Then spoke.

“She was using outside resources…”

His voice steady-

“And those properties did not belong to White Real Estate.”

Murmurs.

Immediate.

“We lost money because of it.”

There it was.

The accusation.

Clean.

Simple.

Wrong.

I didn’t react.

Didn’t interrupt.

Because this-

This was exactly what I needed.

Victoria nodded.

Satisfied.

“As a result-”

“She was removed from her position.”

Oscar nodded once.

“Yes.”

Victoria turned slightly.

“Your witness.”

I stood slowly.

Not rushed.

Not pressured.

Certain.

I approached the stand.

Stopping just a few steps away.

down!

And finally-

Oscar looked at me.

For the first time. 1

“Mr. White.”

My voice was calm.

Almost polite.

“Let’s clarify your statement.”

A pause. 1

“You said…”

I tilted my head slightly.

“…that the properties I acquired…”

“…did not belong to White Real Estate.”

He nodded.

“Yes.”

I smiled.

Small.

“Good.”

A flicker of confusion crossed his face.

“Then let me ask you something simple.”

I stepped closer.

“Who paid for those properties?”

Silence.

Oscar hesitated.

Just for a second.

“…The company-”

I cut him off.

“No.”

Calm.

Firm.

“Answer carefully.”

id White Real Estate fund those acquisitions?”

The room leaned in.

Oscar’s jaw tightened,

“…No.”

There it was.

I nodded.

As if confirming something already known.

“So the company did not invest in those properties.”

A pause. 1

“And yet you claim the company lost money because of them.”

Silence.

Heavy.

I let it settle.

Then-

Delivered the strike.

“Tell me, Mr. White…”

My voice softened.

Dangerously precise.

“How does a company lose money…”

A beat.

“…on assets it never owned?”

The courtroom went still.

Because now-

The lie wasn’t just exposed.

It was impossible.

I didn’t move.

Didn’t react.

Didn’t even blink.

“Mr. White,” I said calmly.

“Who procured the external assets used to acquire those properties?”

Oscar answered immediately.

“She did.”

A pause. 1

Then-

His mistake.

“But as my fiancée-”

He continued.

“She was supposed to leave those properties to me when she left.”

The room shifted.

Subtly.

Dangerously.

“I was entitled…”

He added.

“To half of what she had.”

Silence.

Not confusion.

Shock.

I tilted my head slightly.

Studying him.

“You were entitled?”

I repeated.

Soft.

Almost curious.

Oscar straightened.

“Yes.”

I nodded slowly.

“Let’s clarify that.”

I took one step closer.

“We were engaged.”

Not married.”

He didn’t answer.

Because he couldn’t.

“And there was no legal agreement-”

I continued.

“No contract-”

“No shared ownership structure-”

“-stating that you had any claim…”

A beat.

…over my personal assets.”

Oscar’s jaw tightened.

“…No.”

There it was.

I nodded once.

“So your claim-”

My voice remained calm.

Precise.

“Is not based on law.”

A pause. 1

“Not based on contract.”

Another step closer.

“Not based on investment.”

I held his gaze.

“But on expectation.”

Silence.

And then-

The final cut.

“Tell me, Mr. White…”

A slight tilt of my head.

“Since when does expectation…”

Abeat.

“…equal ownership?”

The courtroom went completely still.

Because now-

He wasn’t just wrong.

He sounded absurd.

And worse-

Entitled.

I didn’t step back.

Didn’t give him space to recover.

“Mr. White.”

My voice was calm.

Steady.

“Why did your company issue that public statement?”

A pause. 1

Oscar hesitated.

For the first time-
