Chapter 4 - The Cruel Favoritism
To the outside world, Victoria Vance had always presented herself as a grieving, devoted widow who had selflessly dedicated her life to her two daughters after the sudden passing of General Arthur Vance eighteen months ago.
In reality, Victoria was a ruthless, narcissistic woman who had spent years emotionally abusing Nora while lavishing endless wealth, private jet trips, and luxury estates on her favorite younger child, Sienna.
Sienna was given multi-million-dollar trust funds, luxury sports cars, and expensive designer clothes without ever having to work a single day in her life, while Nora—who had proudly followed in her beloved father's footsteps by enlisting in the Army—was financially cut off, vilified, and treated like an unwanted stranger in her own home.
Victoria believed that General Arthur Vance’s eighty-million-dollar defense contracting firm and massive private real estate portfolio would automatically transfer into her exclusive possession upon his tragic passing.
However, for eighteen long, grueling months, the entire estate had remained completely frozen by a high-level military probate court under the strict, unbreakable order of General Vance's personal legal counsel.
