Inside the dark cabinet sat several thick stacks of legal papers.
Dust particles floated in the air as the doors swung fully open.
Arthur reached inside and grabbed a thick green folder resting on top.
Victoria screamed out from across the room in pure panic.
Victoria: Put those back! That is private personal property!
Arthur: Nothing in my home is private from me anymore!
Arthur pulled out the thick stack of financial documents and legal files.
He shuffled through the first few pages with growing confusion.
The pages bore the official seal of his family's private trust fund.
He saw forged signatures made to look exactly like his own writing.
The papers transferred ownership of the mansion to an offshore shell company.
Even worse, a life insurance policy had been opened under Lily's name.
Arthur's hands began to shake as he read the terrible details.
The policy listed Victoria as the primary sole beneficiary of millions.
Arthur: What is the meaning of this paper, Victoria?
Victoria stood frozen near the open front door, silent and trembling.
Arthur: You forged my name on trust documents and insurance forms!
Victoria: It was for our family's future financial protection!
Arthur: You tried to insure my six-year-old child's life!
Arthur stared down at the dark signatures on the official white paper.
Arthur: That is fake! Everything you signed here is fake!
The dark realization hit Arthur like a violent physical blow.
Victoria had been planning to push his child into a dangerous situation.
She wanted to collect millions from the insurance policy she secretly created.
The fall down the staircase was not an accidental stumblings at all.
It was a cruel attempt to harm an innocent girl for money.
Arthur gripped the papers tight until the edges crumpled in his fist.
He turned around to face the woman he had foolishly trusted.
