Liam: Prenup adjustments?! You mean the clause that hands over forty percent of my family's real estate business if I become incapacitated?!
Vanessa: I... I didn't mean it like that!
Liam: You tried to drug me so I would sign over millions of dollars while incapacitated!
Clara: She's been planning this for weeks, Liam. Look at her phone on the head table—her text messages are right there!
Vanessa: Don't you touch my personal property!
Vanessa lunged toward the table to grab her purse, but Liam stepped in front of her, blocking her path with a cold, furious expression.
Liam: Nobody moves until the police get here!
Vanessa: You can't hold me here against my will! This is my wedding day!
Liam: There is no wedding, Vanessa. The contract is dead. We are finished.
Vanessa covered her face with both hands, sobbing loudly as the harsh reality began to settle over her. Tears ruined her heavy bridal makeup, leaving black streaks down her cheeks.
Vanessa: Liam, I love you! I only did it because my father's firm is going under! We needed the mortgage settlement money!
Liam: You lied to me about your family's money? You told me your father was a successful investor!
Vanessa's Father: Vanessa, keep your mouth shut right now! Don't say another word without a lawyer!
Vanessa's father hurried up from the guest seating, his expensive suit looking wrinkled as he pulled his panicked daughter back.
Liam: Oh, so you were in on this too, Arthur?! Did you help her source the chemical pill?!
Vanessa's Father: I had nothing to do with this, Davis! I just got here five minutes ago!
Clara: That's another lie! I saw them talking behind the private bridal suite twenty minutes before the doors opened!
Liam: Clara, keep recording everything. Every single detail matters for the lawsuit and the criminal charges.
Clara: My phone has been recording the whole time, Liam. Every word out of her mouth is saved.
Vanessa looked around the room, meeting the cold, disgusted glare of every guest in attendance. Her mother-in-law was already on her cell phone with the local authorities.
Liam's Mother: Yes, officer, we have an emergency at the Grand Ballroom. Attempted poisoning and fraud. Send officers immediately.
Vanessa: No! Cancel the call! Please, Mrs. Davis, don't do this to my family!
Liam's Mother: You tried to kill my son for a trust fund, girl. You're going to prison.
