Samuel turned his cold gaze toward Evelyn and David with obvious anger.
Samuel: My legal team has already finalized the acquisition of this mortgage debt yesterday morning.
David: Wait, what are you talking about? My father paid off this estate last year!
Samuel: Your father took out a massive loan against this mansion six months before he passed.
Evelyn stepped back until her back pressed hard against the wooden door frame.
Evelyn: That loan was private! How did you get access to those bank documents?
Samuel: Because my firm bought out the bank's distress portfolio last week.
Sarah took a legal folder out from her purse and opened the smooth paper pages.
Sarah: You thought you could marry David off to Chloe to cover your bankruptcy.
Chloe: My family has plenty of money to support David's business venture!
Sarah: Your family's firm went into default two nights ago, Chloe.
Chloe looked over at David with eyes wide in utter horror and confusion.
Chloe: David, is that true? Did your company lose its funding?
David: Chloe, please let me explain before you listen to them!
A female catering staff member walked out from the kitchen area holding a velvet box.
Staff Member: Excuse me, Mrs. Vance. I found this under your makeup desk in the bedroom.
The butler took the box and opened it to reveal the glowing diamond ring inside.
Sarah: You hid it yourself so you could frame me for theft and call the police.
Evelyn: That is an absolute lie! The maid must have dropped it by mistake!
Samuel: Save your excuses for the judge when we file the eviction notice today.
