The next morning, Arthur called an emergency meeting at headquarters.
Board members gathered around the long polished mahogany table quickly.
Richard sat at the head, looking smug and completely confident.
He believed Arthur was trapped at home in bed today.
The heavy doors opened wide, catching everyone completely by surprise.
Arthur walked into the room without using a wooden cane.
Richard dropped his pen, his face turning completely pale white.
Arthur: Looking for me, Richard?
Richard: How are you walking without severe pain?
Arthur: Your paid doctor failed, thanks to a tiny child.
Federal agents walked into the boardroom right behind Arthur.
They placed Richard under arrest for conspiracy and fraud charges.
The board voted instantly to remove Richard from the firm.
Arthur took his rightful place at the head of the table.
Later that afternoon, Arthur returned to his quiet Dallas mansion.
He summoned Sarah into his spacious corporate home office.
Sarah walked in nervously, uncertain of her family's future.
Arthur: I am setting up a trust fund for Lily.
Sarah: Sir, that is far too generous for us!
Arthur: Her sharp eyes saved my life and company.
Arthur handed Sarah legal papers guaranteeing Lily's college tuition.
He also promoted Sarah to chief mansion manager with double pay.
Lily ran into the office, holding a colorful toy doctor kit.
Lily: I fix your leg again today, mister?
Arthur laughed warmly, picking up the sweet three-year-old girl.
Arthur: My leg is completely perfect now, sweet child.
Sarah wiped away tears of gratitude watching them smile together.
A dark corporate plot had ended in total victory and joy.
Honesty and innocence had restored truth to a wealthy home.
