Chapter 7 - The Master Key
Mr. Moretti didn't draw a gun. Instead, he pulled out a heavy, ornate brass master key that controlled every lock in the entire mansion estate.
He held it above Evelyn’s shaking hands, then slowly closed his fist around it.
"You are no longer the household manager of this estate," Mr. Moretti stated coldly.
He turned his head toward the doorway where two towering men in black suits—his personal security detail—were standing silently.
"Marco. Paul," Mr. Moretti commanded smoothly. "Escort Miss Crane to her living quarters. Search every box, every safe, and every suitcase. Freeze every card associated with her name."
The two large men stepped into the kitchen immediately. Marco grabbed Evelyn by her arm, lifting her off the marble floor as she began to weep in sheer terror.
"Mr. Moretti, please! Don't call the police! Let's talk about this!" Evelyn cried out as she was dragged down the long marble hallway.

"Police?" Mr. Moretti echoed with a faint, dark smile. "You should pray I hand you over to the police."
