The heavy front doors of the Dallas mansion swung open into bright daylight.
Two uniformed police officers and a federal agent walked into the grand foyer.
Victoria backed away slowly toward the dining room in total shock.
Victoria: You cannot arrest me without a formal trial in court!
Richard: The federal warrant was signed an hour ago Victoria.
Richard took a step toward Victoria and grabbed her by the arm firmly.
He escorted her directly toward the open doorway where officers waited patiently.
Richard: You are going straight to federal prison!
Victoria: Unhand me right now or I will file a lawsuit!
Richard: Never step foot here again!
The officers placed steel handcuffs onto Victoria's wrists right outside the entrance.
several household staff members watched from the lawn in quiet relief.
Victoria shouted angrily as she was placed into the back of the vehicle.
The police car drove away down the long paved driveway into bright sunlight.
Richard turned around and walked back inside to comfort his darling daughter.
He knelt down beside Chloe on the bright polished marble floor.
He took her hands softly into his own large strong hands.
Richard: I am so sorry I did not see her true face sooner.
Chloe: All that matters is that our home is safe now dad.
Richard: I promise to protect you and our family business forever.
They embraced tightly in the center of the quiet sunlit living room.
The dangerous threat to their lives and fortune was finally gone today.
Chloe looked out the front door and felt a deep sense of relief.
Justice had prevailed and their family bond remained stronger than ever before.
