The judge slid a document across the desk. “According to this prenuptial agreement, all marital assets — including the house, cars, and accounts — belong to Mr. Marcus. You leave this marriage with nothing.”
“No,” the judge replied evenly. “They were bought with his money, under his name, as outlined in your own signed agreement.”

Daniela’s anger exploded. “You tricked me!” she screamed, turning to Marcus. “You planned this!”
Marcus finally stood. His voice was quiet, but steady. “I didn’t plan anything. You did that yourself. You married for greed, not love — and now greed has left you with nothing.”
The courtroom was still. Even the judge looked struck by his calm.
“Keep the jewelry,” Marcus said finally. “I don’t need any of it. I only wanted love. But you — you only wanted gold. So wear it proudly when the emptiness catches up to you.”
