Audrey’s smirking face completely pales as cold sweat broke out across her forehead. Her arrogant posture collapsed into sheer terror as she stammered in front of her shocked parents.
"How... how did you document all of this?!" Audrey whispered, her voice cracking into a panicked shriek. "You're at work all day! You shouldn't have these files!"
Sarah looked Audrey dead in the eye, gently patting her five-year-old son's head as a stoic, decisive smile formed on her lips.

"You didn't care about my son's safety, Audrey," Sarah said, her words cutting through the hallway like a surgeon's scalpel. "You fabricated a federal child abuse report to steal a orphan's three-million-dollar inheritance to pay off your own gambling debts."
Elena Cruz closed her case file with a sharp, heavy thud, her face filled with professional outrage.
