Chapter 6 - Handcuffs at the Country Club

The grand dining room of the exclusive Chicago Country Club was packed with wealthy socialites and corporate wives. Madison sat at the center of the largest table, wearing a bright yellow designer dress, holding a mimosa and laughing loudly as she boasted about her "sacrifices" as a caregiver.
"It's just so exhausting," Madison lied smoothly, dabbing the corner of her eye with a napkin. "But Margaret is like a mother to me. I would do anything for her."
Before her friends could offer their fake sympathy, the heavy mahogany doors of the dining room swung open.
Garrett walked in, his tall, broad frame commanding the attention of the entire room. Flanking him were four uniformed police officers and a senior detective holding a manila folder.
Madison beamed, standing up from the table. "Garrett! Darling, what a surprise! Are you joining us?"
Garrett stopped ten feet away from her. His ice-blue eyes were completely devoid of warmth.
"Madison Weston," the senior detective announced loudly, stepping past Garrett. "You are under arrest for elder abuse, aggravated assault, and grand financial fraud."
Madison’s smile dropped instantly. The blood drained from her face as the entire dining room fell into a dead, suffocating silence.
"What?! Garrett, tell them to stop! This is a mistake!" Madison shrieked, backing away toward the table as two officers grabbed her arms, forcing them behind her back.
Garrett pulled a small tablet from his suit jacket. With a single tap, the country club's large presentation screen behind the table lit up, broadcasting the silent, horrifying security footage of Madison slapping his elderly mother in the penthouse.
