Chapter 6 - James Exposes Ryan With Hard Cold Evidence

Ryan backed away until his spine hit the stone pillar of the ballroom, realizing his entire life of lies had finally caught up to him.
James reached inside his leather jacket, pulling out a thick manila folder stamped with federal legal seals and official signatures.
“You thought deleting her digital footprint and changing her bank passwords would protect you forever, Ryan,” James said coldly, stepping forward.
“You forgot that digital trails leave fingerprints, and medical registries keep paper backups that money can't always erase.”
James opened the folder, pulling out certified documents and laying them flat on the nearest dining table for everyone to see.
“Here is the original admission slip signed by Ryan Sterling at St. Jude’s Private Sanitarium in Fort Worth,” James announced to the room.
“Here is the forged death certificate, complete with a forged notary stamp from a corrupt county clerk who is currently under federal arrest.”
“And here is Emily’s primary inheritance trust document, which Ryan tried to liquidate thirty minutes before walking down this aisle.”
