Mark pulled the thick papers right out of his suit.
He unfolded them slowly on top of the high table.
Victoria's bright smile instantly faded from her pale face.
She recognized the legal document from her private bag.
What are you doing, Mark?
Put those silly papers away right now.
Mark raised his clear voice so everyone could hear easily.
I want to thank you all for coming today.
But before we celebrate, there is something you must see.
He held up the top signature page for all to view.
My bride signed these official papers earlier this morning.
She planned to send my daughter to an orphanage today.
Gasp filled the quiet room in a sudden rush.
Grandmother dropped her silver spoon onto the porcelain plate.
This is complete nonsense!
He is confused and stressed out!
Mark turned his cold dark eyes straight to Victoria.
You told Lily she was being sent away forever.
You thought you could trick me and take my money.
Victoria's face turned completely red with loud fury.
That little girl is a spoiled brat who ruins everything!
She doesn't belong in a high society house like this!
The entire hall went dead silent from her cruel outburst.
Victoria realized too late what she had just blurted out.
She slapped her hand over her own open mouth fast.
The guests watched her with total shock and disgust.
Mark stepped closer to his lovely young daughter Lily.
My daughter belongs right here with people who love her.
You will never set foot near her ever again.
Grandmother stood up using her heavy silver walking cane.
Victoria, you are an absolute disgrace to this family.
Get out of my house before I call the police.
Victoria looked around the room for any friendly face.
Every single guest turned their heads away from her completely.
Her greed had destroyed her entire plan in seconds.
She grabbed her white bridal purse off the table fast.
You will regret this, Mark!
You ruined my future over a stupid kid!
Mark did not say another single word to her.
He simply signaled to the security guards at the door.
Two large guards stepped forward to escort her out.
