Julia knew that mentally ill offenders couldn’t be held fully accountable, so she greased the right palms early on, faking psych records for those thugs and messing with the alley’s security cameras.

To sell the whole act, she even had the goons rough her up, making sure she looked like an innocent bystander who just happened to get caught in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Julia was always sharp but just blinded by her obsession with Howard. She couldn’t wrap her head around why I’d try to “ruin” her life.

So she carefully laid out this trap, hell-bent on making me, the one who “wrecked” her happiness, pay the price.

But this time, I’m not stepping into her snare. So, I wonder, what kind of fallout is Julia in for when she finally has to face the consequences?
