Chapter 8 - Cutting the Parasites Off
With Mark’s family gone and the high-society guests filming the scandal on their smartphones, David collapsed onto his knees on the stage, weeping pathetically.
"Laura... please..." David whimpered, reaching out to grab the hem of her lilac gown. "We can fix this! We're a family! Think of our marriage!"
Laura looked down at her husband with an expression of cold, absolute indifference.
"There is no 'we' anymore, David," Laura said, her quiet, decisive whisper carrying unshakeable authority. "You stood by and watched your mother strike our five-year-old child. You failed as a father, and you failed as a husband."
Laura pulled a legal document from her manila folder, tossing it onto David's lap.
"These are emergency divorce papers and a full asset preservation order," Laura declared. "I have frozen all joint accounts. You and your mother have twenty-four hours to vacate my house."
Evelyn let out a high-pitched, pathetic screech, clutching her chest as venue security officers stepped forward to escort her and Brenda off the premises for financial fraud and public disruption.
