Chapter 8 - The Ultimate Betrayal
Phyllis stood up so fast her chair tipped backward, crashing onto the hardwood floor. "That's a lie! That's a total lie! You have no proof!"
"We do have proof, Mrs. Vance," Detective Miller replied calmly. "Your neighbor’s driveway security camera captured you entering your son’s garage at two in the morning on the night before the crash, carrying a set of wire cutters."
Marcus turned to stare at his mother, a look of complete horror and disgust paralyzing his entire body.
"You tried to kill her..." Marcus whispered, his voice cracking with unbearable emotional agony. "You didn't just abuse her while she was hurt... you caused the crash!"
Phyllis panicked, grabbing her designer purse from the counter and trying to push past the officers toward the back entrance.
"She was taking my son away from me!" Phyllis screamed hysterically, her mask of sanity slipping completely. "He was supposed to buy ME the condo in Florida! She made him put the house in HER name! She ruined everything!"
The two uniformed officers grabbed Phyllis by her arms, twisting them behind her back and snapping heavy steel handcuffs around her wrists.
