Evelyn sat on the cold floor while clutching her side in deep shame.
She looked up at the man she had tried to trick for years.
Richard shifted Maya to his other hip and pulled out his cell phone.
He immediately dialed the head of security for their gated residential community.
Richard: Send two officers to my front door immediately.
Richard: I have a trespasser who needs to be escorted off the property.
Evelyn scrambled to her knees on the polished white floor in total panic.
Evelyn: Richard, don't do this to me! Think of our family name!
Richard: You stopped being part of this family the second you hurt Maya.
He walked over to his study desk and grabbed a thick manila folder.
He had hired a private investigator three weeks prior to check her finances.
He threw the heavy document folder onto the marble floor right beside her.
The papers spilled out across the floor, showing dozens of bank statements.
Evelyn gasped when she saw her secret offshore accounts listed in print.
She had been draining money from the family business for several months.
She planned to leave the country as soon as the inheritance was secured.
Richard: I was going to confront you about the money tonight gently.
Richard: But you were willing to destroy my daughter for your own greed.
Evelyn began to cry real tears as her entire plan collapsed around her.
She knew there was no way out of the legal mess she created.
The front door bell rang loudly throughout the silent white foyer.
Richard walked over to the heavy double doors and pulled them open wide.
