The week had been eventful for Paula, though she carried herself with poise, acting as if everything was moving smoothly.
Her days were filled with work—balancing her responsibilities at ZM Technologies and maintaining her life as Onyx, the celebrated model and brand ambassador.
People continued to talk about what had transpired with Melissa, whispers following her wherever she went, but Paula didn't let it bother her.
She already believed since a very long time that the truth will always prevail and in the end, the truth prevailed.
Maybe it was pity from others, or maybe it was just fate finally balancing the scales, but Melissa was finally paying for everything she had done.
That gave Paula some comfort, though it didn't erase the ache in her chest from something or rather, someone—else.
