Robert stood up slowly from his seat at the head dinner table.
His face turned from deep shock to severe, absolute fury in seconds.
He looked down at Evelyn, who could no longer speak a word.
Robert: You staged the whole scene to frame my only son?
Evelyn: Robert, honey, please let me explain everything to you!
Robert: Do not ever call me honey again in your life!
Robert turned his sharp gaze over toward Chloe, who was trembling now.
Robert: And you were going to split my family estate with her?
Chloe: Lucas was always prioritizing his work over our relationship, Robert!
Lucas: That gives you no right to frame me for a crime, Chloe.
Robert: Security, escort these two women off my property immediately!
The two security officers stepped forward and grabbed Evelyn and Chloe tightly.
They led the screaming women out through the side exits of the room.
The wedding guests began to applaud loudly for Lucas and his truth.
Robert walked slowly down from the elevated stage toward his kneeling son.
Tears filled the older man's eyes as he realized his terrible mistake.
Robert: Lucas, I let my anger blind me to the truth today.
Lucas: You didn't trust me when I begged you on my knees, Dad.
Robert: I am so sorry, my son, more than words can ever say.
Lucas: It hurts that you believed a stranger over your own blood.
Robert: I will spend the rest of my life making this right to you.
Lucas looked at his father and saw real shame in his tearful eyes.
He knew that healing their relationship would take time and real effort.
Lucas: Let's start by walking out of this place together, Dad.
Robert: Whatever you want, son, the family business is yours completely now.
Lucas shook his father's hand firmly as the crowd cheered for them.
