Vanessa stood in the center of the white marble room.
Beside her stood a middle-aged lawyer holding thick files.
Elena was standing near the kitchen door looking worried.
Lawyer: Mr. Vance, my client claims a breach.
Lawyer: She claims physical assault took place here.
Vanessa pointed a sharp fingernail straight at Adrian's chest.
Vanessa: You threw me out without my legal right!
Vanessa: I am your wife, and I demand access!
Adrian laughed softly with a cold, ruthless tone.
Adrian: You attacked a sick old woman today.
Adrian: And you burned a devoted worker badly.
Vanessa: She was just a careless clumsy maid!
Elena stepped forward from the hallway with bandage wraps.
Elena: I have the medical report right here.
Elena: The doctor documented the exact soup burn.
Vanessa sneered at Elena with pure, unwashed disgust.
Vanessa: Keep your dirty mouth quiet, little maid!
Adrian stepped directly between Vanessa and his sister Elena.
Adrian: Do not speak to her like that ever again.
Vanessa: Why do you care about a worker?
Adrian: Because she is my biological sister, Vanessa.
The entire room went completely silent in an instant.
The lawyer lowered his leather briefcase in total shock.
Vanessa stared at Adrian with wide, disbelieving eyes.
Elena gasped out loud and held her hurt arm.
Elena: What did you just say, Mr. Vance?
Adrian turned around and smiled warmly at young Elena.
Adrian: It is true, Elena. You are a Vance.
Adrian: My father was your father as well.
Adrian: And this mansion is half yours today.
Vanessa shook her head rapidly in total disbelief now.
Vanessa: No! That is completely impossible!
Vanessa: You are lying to save your money!
Adrian pulled out his phone and made one call.
Adrian: Send the security team inside right now.
