Chapter 10 - The Family Eviction
"Wait! You can't evict her!" Bellamy's mother screamed, finally jumping up from her seat at the dining table, her gold jewelry jingling loudly. "This is my daughter's home! She organized this entire Christmas dinner! We are guests here!"
Attorney Jenkins didn't even flinch. She turned her cool gaze toward the older woman.
"Mrs. Evelyn Miller?" Jenkins asked smoothly.
"Yes! I am her mother!" Evelyn declared, puffing out her chest.
"Then you should know," Jenkins continued, pulling a second document from her folder, "that the injunction also extends to all members of the Miller family currently occupying the premises. Furthermore, a freeze order has been placed on your Miami boutique account pending grand jury investigation into wire fraud."
Evelyn's face turned as white as the snow outside. She sank back into her chair as if she had been hit by a physical blow.
"Wire fraud?" one of Byron's cousins whispered loudly from across the table. "She was stealing money from Aunt Lorna?"
"Over two hundred thousand dollars over eighteen months," Byron announced clearly to the entire room, his voice ringing with absolute clarity. "Manipulating trust accounts, falsifying invoices for estate renovations that were never completed, and transferring funds to her personal family accounts."
