Victor marched into the hallway and placed himself between the women.
He gently checked Clara and the baby to ensure their safety.
Victor: Are you two hurt, my sweet love?
Clara: We are okay, but she tried to grab him!
Victoria took a step back with a nervous look in her eyes.
Victoria: I was only protecting our family trust fund from her!
Victor: By attacking my wife in our own living room?
Victor picked up the manila folder from the wooden floor.
He opened the first page and read the legal text carefully.
His jaw tightened as he realized what his sister had done.
Victor: You hired a lawyer to take away my stepson?
Victoria: She is an outsider who wants our father's inheritance money!
Victor: Father left half the estate to me and my family!
Clara wiped a tear from her cheek while rocking her crying baby.
Clara: I never asked for a single cent of your money.
Victor: I know that, Clara, and I trust you completely.
Victoria pulled out her mobile phone with trembling fingers.
Victoria: If you back her, I will lock the company accounts!
Victor: You do not have the power to do that anymore.
He pulled a second white envelope out from his suit jacket pocket.
Victor: I visited father's original lawyer early this morning.
Victoria froze as she stared at the official legal seal.
Victoria: What original lawyer are you talking about right now?
Victor: The lawyer who held father's final real will and testament.
The room became completely quiet as the truth hung in the air.
