Richard handed the tablet back to his trusted security officer.
He looked at Victoria like she was a complete stranger.
Richard: Why were you talking about his mother's trust fund?
Victoria: I was just stressed about our family business budget!
Sarah pulled a small folded paper out of her apron.
Sarah: I found this paper in the trash bin earlier.
She handed the document directly into Richard's open hand.
Richard scanned the typed legal words on the official page.
His jaw tightened with intense shock as he read closely.
Richard: This is an application to alter my estate will!
Victoria: That was just draft paperwork from my divorce lawyer!
Richard: You forged my signature on this inheritance transfer document!
Leo held his father's coat with his small hands firmly.
Leo: She told me I would be sent to boarding school.
Richard: You planned to ship my son away from me?
Victoria backed against the wall, knowing her game was finished.
Victoria: You give him everything while ignoring my own needs!
Richard: I gave you a home, wealth, and my respect!
Victoria: I deserved half of this mansion under our prenup!
Richard: That prenup becomes totally void in cases of fraud!
Victoria tried to step toward the front door quietly.
The two security officers immediately blocked her exit path.
Security Guard: Stand right where you are, ma'am, stay still.
Victoria: Move out of my way, you have no right!
Richard: They answer to me, and you are going nowhere.
Richard turned to Sarah with a warm look of respect.
Richard: You risked your job to protect my small son.
Sarah: I could never watch a child be mistreated, sir.
Richard: You showed more integrity than this woman ever had.
Victoria scoffed loudly from near the grand main entrance.
Victoria: She is just a low-level worker looking for cash!
Sarah: I do not want your money, I want truth.
Richard: And truth is exactly what we have found today.
Richard pulled his phone from his inner jacket pocket fast.
He dialed his personal family lawyer's private direct line.
Richard: Cancel all credit cards attached to Victoria immediately.
Victoria: You cannot leave me without any financial access!
Richard: Watch me strip away every single luxury you stole.
Leo looked up at his father with a small smile.
Leo: Can Sarah stay with us forever now, Dad?
Richard: Sarah will have a job here as long as she wants.
Victoria felt her high status evaporating into thin air completely.
She had traded her comfortable life for worthless greed today.
