The family lawyer arrived at the mansion later that afternoon.
He carried a heavy leather folder full of legal documents and prenuptial agreements.
Daniels sat at the long dining table with his head in his hands.
Eleanor sat across from him, sipping a warm cup of herbal tea.
Lawyer: The papers for the separation are completely ready for signatures.
Daniels did not hesitate for a single second to sign his name.
He wanted every connection to Victoria severed as soon as possible.
Daniels: I built this company on my mother's early sacrifices.
Daniels: I will never let anyone disrespect her legacy again.
Eleanor smiled softly as she saw her real son return to her.
She had built the family business from nothing decades ago in town.
Her wealth was meant to help kind people, not reward cruelty.
Eleanor: Money reveals who people are on the inside, Daniels.
Daniels: I learned that lesson the hardest way possible today.
Meanwhile, Victoria sat inside a small rental car down the street.
She checked her banking app and saw a balance of zero dollars.
Her luxury lifestyle had vanished in less than a single hour.
She realized too late that kindness was worth more than gold.
She turned the key in the ignition and drove away slowly.
Back inside the mansion, the staff gathered in the large kitchen.
Eleanor walked in and thanked them for keeping her secret identity safe.
Eleanor: You all deserve a place where you are treated with dignity.
She announced a raise for every single worker in the house.
