Chapter 8 - Legal Team Descends Upon River Oaks
Two sleek black legal transport vehicles turned down the quiet residential street in River Oaks just before noon.
Half a dozen attorneys dressed in sharp charcoal suits stepped out onto the pristine pavement carrying heavy leather briefcases.
They marched purposefully up the stone walkway of the luxury estate where Ethan and Margaret stood watching in shock.
The lead attorney, a formidable woman named Victoria Vance, stepped forward and flashed an official court-stamped folio.
“Are you Ethan Vance?” Victoria demanded crisply, adjusting her designer eyeglasses with absolute authority.
“Yes, I am... and who authorized you to trespass on private property?” Ethan stammered defensively.
“This property belongs exclusively to Sterling Crest Group and its sole proprietor, Claire Sterling,” Victoria stated coldly.

Margaret pushed past her son, her face flushing with indignant fury as she pointed a shaking finger at the lawyers.
“That’s a ridiculous lie! My son built this empire, and that worthless former wife of his owns nothing!” Margaret screeched.
