Chapter 163 Chapter 163

Maya's POV-

The world seemed to slow down. It was like a movie, except I was right in the middle of it, not watching from a comfy couch. The rain was coming down hard, and the sirens were a high-pitched whine that cut through the air. People were shouting and running around, but it was all a blur. All I could see was the man in front of me.

"Mass murder?" I asked, my voice small and shaky. My mind couldn't process what he was saying. I looked at Ivan, lying still on the ground. My hand reached to Alex, like I was trying to hold onto something real in this crazy situation. He squeezed my hand tight, but I could see the confusion

in his eyes.

"This is a mistake," I whispered, hoping against hope. "There's been a misunderstanding."

The man in the black suit ignored me, starting to say those words that everyone knows from TV shows: "You have the right to remain silent..."

Then everything happened fast. One minute, it felt like we had won. The next, they were taking Alex away from me. I screamed and shouted, trying to tell them they were wrong. I didn't care that I was only

wearing a jacket someone had put on me or that I was covered in blood. I just wanted them to stop. I kept thinking, "Mass murder? How?"

The days after that were blur. I couldn't remember everything that happened. Slowly, I started to understand what Ivan had meant and wht he was so happy. We hadn't won. Ivan was sick. He had been killing people for years, making videos of it all. And in the end, he had set Alex up to take the blame. Over a thousand people. Ivan had killed them all, and now Alex was going to prison for life.

I felt a cold feeling inside, like someone had twisted a knife in my chest. I looked at the papers in front of me. Six months. One hundred and eighty-two days. Four thousand three hundred and eighty hours. That's how long Alex had been locked up. I tried everything. I used all our resurces, I begged Riley's dad to help, use his mafia connections one last time but nothing worked.

"They are all waiting for you to give your speech," My father's voice broke through my concentration. I turned to find him standing in the doorway, his expression a mix of concern and determination. I nodded slowly, my throat
