David walked quickly down the long hallway toward the home library.
The dark wood paneling matched the serious mood in the air.
Sarah walked right beside him, holding her veil in her hand.
Victoria ran past them and blocked the big library doorway.
Victoria: You cannot go inside this room, David!
David: Get out of my way right now, Victoria.
Victoria: I built this life for us with my hard work!
David: You built this life on cruel lies and stolen money.
David gently pushed past Victoria and opened the thick wooden door.
The library had large windows that let in full daylight.
A large metal safe sat behind the heavy executive desk.
David stood in front of the key code panel on the safe.
He remembered the sequence of numbers Victoria always used for private files.
He entered the corporate code into the numeric keypad with fast fingers.
The green light flashed and the heavy metal door clicked open.
David pulled out a thick blue folder marked with legal seals.
He opened the folder and read the pages printed inside it.
The legal document clearly left half the estate to Sarah.
A official signed letter proved Sarah was the rightful co-owner.
David also found bank papers showing large money transfers to offshore accounts.
Victoria had been draining Sarah’s trust fund for several years.
David: How could you treat my own sister like this?
Victoria: She did not deserve half of this fortune!
Victoria: I did everything to protect our high status in town!
Sarah: You ruined my life for simple corporate greed.
David: You are going to answer for every crime you committed.
Victoria took a step back with fear rising in her chest.
She realized that her carefully built empire was falling apart now.
David pulled his mobile phone from his dark suit jacket pocket.
He dialed the direct line for the local police department station.
David: I need officers sent to the grand estate right away.
Victoria: Hang up that phone right now, David!
David ignored her demands and gave the exact street address.
He ended the call and placed the phone back inside his suit.
Sarah looked at her brother with tears of relief in her eyes.
The years of pain were finally coming to an end today.
