Chapter 8 - The Confrontation at the Door
Two police cruisers pulled up behind Dr. Reed’s SUV with flashing lights. Chief Henderson stepped out, followed by three officers, walking into the grand foyer expecting a simple family trespass dispute.
"Marcus, what's the situation?" Chief Henderson asked, looking at the broken glass on the floor.
"Chief! My brother and this doctor are trying to abduct my daughter!" Marcus lied smoothly, pointing at Michael. "Arrest them immediately!"
Michael didn't utter a word. He pulled out his phone, connected it to the foyer’s wireless smart TV display, and hit cast.
The massive 85-inch screen in the living room illuminated instantly.
The 4K video played clearly for everyone in the room to see: Sophia crying in her gold dress, revealing her dark bruises, and Marcus’s chilling words echoing through the speaker: “Don't interfere, Michael. She's our daughter... Your secret ends tonight.”
Followed by footage of Elisa laughing and drinking wine while the little girl curled in terror near the kitchen island.
Chief Henderson stared at the screen, his face draining of color. The other three officers stepped forward, their expressions hardening into absolute disgust.
