The CEO Hit My Car And Mocked Me, Now My Injury Attorney Owns His Mansion

The Governor’s office smelled of mahogany and old influence—much like Preston’s office, but this room was built on public service, not greed. Flashbulbs popped in a blinding strobe as I stood next to the Governor. On the desk lay the document that justified every tear I’d shed: The Sarah Miller Law. It was a massive overhaul of legislative process regarding vehicular negligence and victim compensation.

"Because of you," the Governor said, handing me the pen, "no one will ever be bankrupted by a billionaire's bumper again."

Vance stood in the back row, beaming. He had mobilized his lobbying firm to push this through, calling in favors I didn't know he had. But he let me take the stage. This wasn't about legal fees; it was about the victims rights bill that would save the next 'Sarah' from drowning.

I took the pen. My hand didn't shake. I signed my name in fluid, dark ink.

As the ink dried, I realized this was the true victory. The money was restitution. The house was shelter. But this? This was immortality. Preston’s name would be a warning in a law textbook; mine would be the shield that protected the innocent.
