Ethan opened his mouth—but nothing came out.

“For three years, you called me weak. You spent money that wasn’t yours. You signed documents you never read. You cheated in hotels you thought I couldn’t trace.”
The assistant lowered her gaze.
Ethan scoffed. “You think recordings scare me?”
“No,” I said. “They’re just for the assault charges. The rest is for court.”
The bank executive slid papers forward. “The business loans were secured using forged authorization under your wife’s assets.”
His partner swallowed. “He told me she approved everything.”
“Shut up,” Ethan snapped.
Rebecca spoke next. “The house, the accounts, the funding—everything belongs to my client. We have documentation, surveillance, and testimony.”
Diane stood abruptly. “This is a family matter!”
I met her eyes. “No. This is evidence.”
The assistant finally spoke, voice shaking. “He forced me to send the documents. And book the hotel rooms.”
Ethan turned on her, furious—but the officer stepped in.
Diane pointed at me. “You planned this? A whole performance?”
I smiled.
