The wrought-iron security gates of the Vance estate loomed large against the darkening evening sky, casting long shadows across the asphalt. Sarah paced back and forth furiously, her designer heels clicking against the pavement with every aggressive step she took. Two burly security guards stood rigidly in front of the open gateway, blocking her reentry into the mansion that she once ruled. A sleek black luxury sedan pulled up to the curb, its tinted windows rolling down slowly to reveal Richard’s stern face. Sarah rushed toward the vehicle, throwing her hands up in utter disbelief as she slammed her palms against the car door. The guards instantly moved forward to intercept her, but Richard waved them back with a single, commanding flick of his wrist. He pushed the door open and stepped out onto the driveway, looking down at Sarah with absolute contempt.
Sarah: You can't just throw me out like trash, Richard! We built this life together!
Richard crossed his arms over his chest, his voice entirely devoid of any warmth or lingering affection.
Richard: We built nothing, Sarah. You married my bank account and tried to murder my child to secure it.
Sarah’s face flushed a deep, angry crimson as she tried to mask her panic with a defiant sneer.
Sarah: Prove it! The courts will never believe a maid over a billionaire's wife!
Richard pulled a small tablet from his inner suit pocket, tapping the screen a few times before holding it up.
Richard: Every single camera in that foyer is 4K ultra-hd. The police already have the footage, Sarah.
Sarah stumbled backward, the color completely draining from her face as reality finally crashed down upon her.
Sarah: You... you reported me to the authorities already? Without even talking to me first?
Richard slipped the tablet back into his pocket, turning his back on her with absolute finality.
Richard: I protect my bloodline and my estate above all else. Consider yourself legally dead to this family.
The security guards stepped forward, firmly gripping Sarah’s arms and guiding her away from the entrance.
Sarah: This isn't over, Richard! I'll take everything you own in the divorce settlement!
Richard didn't even bother turning around as he got back into the luxury sedan and slammed the door.
Richard: Let’s see how much your lawyer costs from inside a jail cell.
