Marcus followed her into the large marble foyer.
Margarethe was trying to open the wall safe behind a painting.
Marcus: Leave the safe closed, Margarethe.
Margarethe: These are my personal private documents!
Marcus: Everything in this house is subject to the estate review.
She turned around with red eyes and trembling hands.
Margarethe: I gave twenty years of my life to this marriage!
Marcus: And my father gave you a home and security.
Margarethe: It was never enough for what I gave up!
Marcus: Greed made you cross the line into crime.
The heavy front door opened with a click.
Two attorneys in suits walked into the foyer.
Attorney: Good afternoon, Mr. Davis. We have the court order.
Marcus: Thank you for coming so quickly.
Margarethe backed up against the mahogany desk.
Margarethe: You have no search warrant for this home!
Attorney: We have an injunction freezing all contested estate assets.
Margarethe gasped as the attorney held up the legal papers.
Marcus: Hand over the drive's decryption keys now.
Margarethe: I will call my own lawyer immediately.
Attorney: Your lawyer has already been notified of this hearing.
Margarethe sat down heavily on the leather sofa.
Margarethe: This is an outrage against my position.
Marcus: Justice is finally happening for my daughter.
Marcus handed the dry drive to his attorney.
Marcus: All the evidence of missing funds is right here.
Attorney: We will review this data with the auditor today.
Margarethe glared at Marcus with deep resentment.
Margarethe: You will regret doing this to me, Marcus.
Marcus: I will never regret defending my child.
