Chapter 4 - The Birthday Party

Two weeks later, the million-dollar luxury home was brilliantly illuminated for an elite, high-society gathering.
Sarah was throwing a massive, incredibly expensive birthday party for her new husband, David. The sprawling backyard was filled with catered food, expensive champagne, and dozens of wealthy, snobby friends laughing loudly under elegant string lights.
Sarah wore a stunning new red designer gown, completely glowing with toxic, arrogant pride.
But Maya wasn't allowed at the party.
The fifteen-year-old girl was locked in her tiny, freezing bedroom upstairs, wearing her worn blue hoodie, desperately trying to study for her exams while her mother spent thousands of dollars on a lavish party downstairs.
"Thank you all for coming!" Sarah announced loudly, clinking her crystal champagne glass to draw the attention of her wealthy guests. "David and I are so blessed to have such a beautiful, perfect life together!"
David smiled smugly, wrapping his arm around Sarah’s waist.
But before the wealthy guests could raise their glasses for a toast, the heavy wooden side gate of the luxury backyard swung open with a violent, echoing crash.
The ambient music was instantly cut. The laughter completely died in the throats of the elite guests.
Jason walked slowly onto the pristine patio. He wasn't wearing a casual beige suit anymore. He wore a sharp, perfectly tailored dark suit, radiating a crushing, undeniable aura of absolute power. Flanking him were four massive, heavily armed private security contractors and two men in sharp legal suits.
Sarah’s arrogant smile instantly faltered. The blood violently drained from her powdered face.

"Jason?!" Sarah gasped, physically staggering backward, her crystal glass trembling. "What the hell are you doing here?! You are violating the custody order!"
👉 Jason didn't yell; he simply reached into his jacket, preparing to drop a financial guillotine on her perfect life.
