The heavy rain started falling over the vast estate three hours later.
Elena walked down the long winding driveway toward the main road gate.
Her phone was almost dead and her shoes were completely ruined now.
She wiped the cold rainwater off her pale cheeks with her sleeve.
She knew that Sarah had planned this wicked scheme for several months.
Marcus was a very rich man with a giant real estate trust.
His rich late father had left thirty million dollars to his grandson.
If Elena lost custody, Sarah and her friends could control the money.
Elena pulled out her small cracked phone and dialed her older brother.
Daniel: Elena, where are you right now?
Elena: Marcus kicked me out on the street without my baby!
Daniel: Stay right where you are because I am driving over now!
Ten minutes later, a silver sedan pulled up to the stone gate.
Daniel opened the passenger door and helped his soaked sister inside.
Daniel: What did he accuse you of doing this morning?
Elena: They said I tried to throw my own baby off the balcony!
Daniel: That sounds like a scripted setup to steal your legal rights!
Elena leaned her sore head against the cold foggy window pane.
Elena: There are private security cameras hidden in every upper hallway!
Daniel: Does Marcus know that those high cameras are active?
Elena: He forgot about the new security cloud system I installed!
Daniel turned the car around and drove straight toward his apartment building.
