Chapter 9 - The Gavel Falls

The emergency hearing the next morning was a bloodbath. Monica’s high-priced attorney barely had time to open his briefcase before my legal team unleashed a tsunami of evidence. The forensic accounting of her debts, the affidavit proving the forged signatures, and the flight logs proving her flight risk. The judge didn't just dismiss her custody petition; he signed a warrant for her arrest for fraud, forgery, and attempted kidnapping. As the bailiffs placed Monica in handcuffs, she glared at me with pure venom. I didn't look at her. I was already walking toward the doors.
