The next morning brought a clear blue sky over the city courthouse building.
Grant met with his head attorney inside a private glass boardroom downtown.
He presented the full digital security video files as evidence to the legal team.
The lawyer reviewed the recorded video footage with a grave and serious expression.
Lawyer: This footage clearly proves emotional harassment and fraudulent intentions on her part.
Grant: I want to protect my daughter's trust fund from any future claims.
Lawyer: With this evidence, the court will annul the marriage very quickly.
Within two weeks, the judge signed the final legal papers annulling the short marriage.
Victoria's attempts to freeze or claim the family trust fund were completely rejected.
She was forced to pay the full legal fees for trying to manipulate the court.
Grant returned home to his quiet mansion with a sense of immense relief.
He walked into the bright kitchen where the morning sun warmed the room.
The American flag still hung proudly on the white wall near the counters.
Lily was sitting at the table, happily drawing a picture with colorful markers.
She looked up and smiled brightly as her father walked into the kitchen.
Lily: Is everything going to be okay now, Daddy?
Grant: Everything is going to be wonderful, sweetheart. We are safe now.
Grant hugged his daughter tightly and felt true peace return to his home.
Truth and love had won, protecting their small family from harm forever.
