Victoria slowly stood up while shaking off her beige jacket.
Her eyes were wild with anger and defeat.
Victoria: You cannot throw your own mother out of this estate!
Julian: Watch me take back control of this family legacy right now.
Julian gripped her arm firmly and pointed toward the massive exit.
He walked her briskly across the bright marble dining hall.
Victoria tried to pull away but Julian held his ground firmly.
Victoria: Let go of my arm this instant Julian!
Julian: You are leaving this estate immediately and never coming back!
The heavy double doors of the mansion were pushed wide open.
Bright Texas sunlight poured into the grand entryway hall.
Security guards stood by the open doors ready to assist Julian.
Julian escorted Victoria out onto the wide stone porch steps.
Victoria: Everyone in this town will hear about this insult!
Julian: Everyone will know the truth about your hidden foreclosure scheme.
He motioned for the valet driver to bring her car around.
Victoria glared at the crowd of guests watching from the doorway.
She realized she had lost all power over the family trust.
She stepped into the back seat of the black car alone.
The sedan drove away down the long tree-lined estate driveway.
Julian turned back inside and closed the heavy wooden doors.
The heavy click of the door lock echoed through the hall.
The wedding guests broke out into loud relieved applause.
Julian walked straight over to where Toby was standing quietly.
He placed a warm comforting hand on the young boy's shoulder.
Julian: Thank you for being so brave today little brother.
Toby: I will always help you protect our family home Julian.
The bride walked down the grand stairs wearing her white gown.
She smiled warmly and took Julian's hand in her own.
Together they walked back to the center of the dining hall.
The estate was finally filled with peace joy and real love.
