Chapter 9 - The Stepmother's Ruin

Victoria was completely backed into a corner, her blood-red silk dress trembling as she pressed herself against the wall.
The arrogant, untouchable socialite was suddenly reduced to a pathetic, cornered coward. As Dominic slowly turned his head to look at her, she dropped to her knees on the marble floor, weeping hysterically.
"Dominic, darling, please!" Victoria begged, her expensive makeup running down her face. "Marcus forced me! I was scared! I didn't want to hurt her! I'll leave the state! You'll never see me again!"
"You tortured my four-year-old daughter," Dominic stated, his voice vibrating with a dark, demonic promise of violence. "You stole her voice for over a year."
Dominic stepped closer, towering over the weeping woman.
"Strip her," Dominic ordered his remaining guards.
The guards stepped forward. They didn't touch her clothes, but they ruthlessly ripped the millions of dollars in diamonds from her neck, wrists, and fingers.
"My cyber-team has already hacked your cartel's servers," Dominic whispered down to her. "I have completely drained your family's trust funds. I have forwarded your financial ledgers directly to the federal authorities. You are completely, permanently bankrupt."
Victoria wailed in pure, humiliating terror.
"Throw her out the front gates," Dominic commanded, devoid of any mercy. "Leave her on the street with absolutely nothing. If she ever steps foot in my territory again, she disappears permanently."
