Chapter 5 - The Hidden Powder
Victoria’s hands began to tremble uncontrollably as she clutched her expensive leather handbag against her ribs. "This is slander! I’ve taken care of these kids for two years! Mr. Sterling, fire this woman immediately and call security before she ruins your reputation!"
Julian’s eyes narrowed into dark slits as he looked at Victoria’s defensive posture. The doubt in his mind was rapidly turning into horror. "Victoria... open your bag."
"What? No! This is invasive!" Victoria stammered, backing away toward the kitchen doors. "I won't be humiliated by a maid in a public restaurant!"
Before Victoria could turn to run, Nia moved with astonishing speed. She stepped into Victoria’s path, reached out, and grabbed the strap of the leather handbag. Victoria yanked back, screaming, but the zipper gave way. The contents of the bag spilled across a nearby white tablecloth—cosmetics, keys, and three small, unmarked prescription bottles filled with a fine white powder.
The room went completely quiet again. Julian stepped up to the table, picking up one of the unmarked bottles with trembling fingers.
