Julian helped Clara sit up slowly on the polished marble floor.
He checked her hands and arms for any bad scrapes from the fall.
Julian: Did you get hurt anywhere during that fall?
Clara: I think I am okay. Thank you for catching me.
Julian looked around the floor and saw the papers scattered everywhere.
He reached over and picked up the main legal document from the ground.
The paper was stamped with an official court lawyer seal from two years ago.
Julian began reading the black text printed clearly on the official paper.
His eyes widened as he saw his father's true last wishes spelled out.
Julian: This says the entire mansion and estate belong to me.
Clara: Your father wanted you to have the trust fund all along.
Victoria hurried down the grand double stairs with a pale face.
She tried to act calm as she walked toward the two of them.
Victoria: That old paper is completely fake, Julian! Do not believe it!
Julian: My father's signature is right here at the bottom, Victoria.
Victoria: He was not in his right mind when he signed that!
Julian: You hid this document in the library wall on purpose!
Victoria stopped moving and looked away toward the large front door.
Clara stood up slowly while leaning against the wooden stair rail for support.
Clara: She knew about the money the whole time, Julian.
Victoria: Shut your mouth! You are just an hired maid in this house!
Julian: Do not speak to her like that ever again in my presence!
Julian stood up tall between Victoria and the brave young maid.
He held the legal paper high so Victoria could see the official stamps.
Julian: My father set up a life insurance policy and a private trust fund.
Julian: You have been using his money illegally for two straight years.
Victoria's voice trembled as she tried to defend her greedy actions.
Victoria: I built this home into what it is today!
Julian: You stole what belonged to my family and tried to silence Clara!
Clara: The law will decide who gets to keep this estate now.
Victoria realized her control over the large fortune was completely over.
She backed toward the grand entrance as Julian pulled out his mobile phone.
Julian: I am calling my divorce lawyer and the estate attorney right now.
The cozy quiet of the grand mansion was changed forever in that moment.
