Chapter 4 - The Medical File

"The prenuptial agreement you tricked my son into signing requires a clean legal record," Catherine stated, her voice dropping into a chilling, measured tone. "Which brings me to the second file on this phone—a sealed hospital report from St. Jude's Medical Center dated six years ago."
Grace’s eyes widened in sheer panic. The color drained completely from her lips, leaving her skin as pale as her champagne-soaked dress. "Where... where did you get that? That's a private medical record! It's illegal for you to have that!"
"When you applied to be a nanny at St. Jude's Pediatric Ward six years ago, you were dismissed after three weeks," Catherine read aloud from the official document. "Not because of downsizing, but because of multiple documented incidents of verbal cruelty toward recovering children."
Mark turned his gaze back to Grace, his mind racing as the puzzle pieces finally clicked together. "You were fired for abusing children? And you hid that from me when we met?"
"She didn't just hide it, Mark," Catherine continued, stepping forward. "She changed her middle name legally three years ago to scrub her background checks before she targeted you at your charity gala."
The wedding guests began recording the entire confrontation on their phones. Local business owners, high-court judges, and prominent community members watched in fascination as the high-society wedding turned into a public execution of Grace's reputation.
Grace realized she was trapped from every direction. She looked at Mark, then at Catherine, and finally at the little boy holding his grandmother's hand.
