In Your Defense

A scandal detonates across the internet overnight, turning Julian Reyes—the golden boy of the industry—into the world’s favorite villain. Edited videos, cryptic posts, leaked audio clips… all of it perfectly timed, perfectly destructive. As public opinion turns vicious, Elena Harper—Lang & Associates’ most cold-blooded young lawyer—is summoned to clean up the wreckage. She wants nothing to do with celebrity chaos, but the case is too big to refuse. When she opens Julian’s file, she realizes the storm isn’t random. Someone is pulling strings. “This isn’t a scandal, it’s a setup,” Elena says, flipping through the doctored footage. Victor Lang nods grimly. “Then find the puppeteer before they finish him.” Across the city, Julian watches his world collapse in real time. His phone buzzes with threats, accusations, and one chilling message: Play nice, or the next clip ends you. Julian’s voice breaks through the silence of his penthouse. “Someone wants me destroyed… and they’re close. Too close.” His manager replies darkly, “Then tomorrow, you face the only person who can save you.” Their paths collide as the scandal reaches its peak—an unyielding lawyer and a man the world has already condemned. In a universe where careers shatter in a heartbeat and the truth is buried beneath millions of opinions, the prologue sets the stage for a war neither of them can afford to lose. Because this time… the game has already begun. ---
