"I... I was wrong," he finally murmured. His voice was heavy with regret and self-reproach. "I let greed blind me, and I hurt all of you... But what's the point of saying that now?" I didn't respond. No words could undo the harm he had inflicted upon us.

I turned and walked away. Each step I took was firm and resolute.

The moment I stepped outside the courtroom, I took a deep breath of fresh air. A profound sense of relief washed over me.
