Chapter 6 - The Emergency Injunction
At that exact moment, two sleek black SUVs pulled onto the cobblestone driveway of the Greenwich estate, their headlights cutting through the heavy pouring rain.
Three men in dark charcoal suits walked up the steps, carrying heavy leather briefcases. They didn't knock; they pushed open the front door, accompanied by a local Greenwich police officer.
“Grant Whitmore?” the lead attorney asked, his tone devoid of any emotion.
Grant stepped forward, his heart thrashing against his chest. “Who the hell are you? This is private property!”
“I am Thomas Sterling, senior managing partner at Sterling & Croft, representing Mrs. Claire Whitmore,” the attorney announced, pulling a thick stack of legal documents from his briefcase. “I am serving you with an emergency court order. This property, along with all accounts tied to the Whitmore Development Group, has been placed under temporary receivership due to allegations of corporate fraud and intentional infliction of emotional distress.”
Natalie gasped, taking a step back. “Receivership? You can’t do that! Grant owns this house!”

“Correction,” Sterling replied, glancing at Natalie with icy contempt. “Mr. Whitmore owned this house under a conditional trust funded by Mr. Arthur Vance. Under Clause 14B of the marital covenant, any act of moral turpitude or breach of fiduciary duty immediately liquidates Mr. Whitmore’s tenancy rights.”
