Chapter 4 - Mark Orders His Mother And Sister Out Of The Mansion
Mark turned his back on his mother and sister, kneeling beside his wife and son on the polished hardwood floor of the room.
He wrapped his strong arms around both of them, kissing his son’s forehead as Toby’s crying finally began to settle down into quiet snuffles.
“I’m so sorry, Sarah,” Mark whispered gently, his voice filled with deep, genuine remorse for ever trusting his toxic relatives.
“I promise you on my life, neither of them will ever step foot inside this house or near our son ever again.”
He stood up smoothly, turning to face Evelyn and Chloe with an expression devoid of any remaining warmth, affection, or mercy.
“Pack your bags from the guest suite,” Mark ordered, his voice echoing with absolute authority through the open-concept floor plan.
“If both of you are not off my property in five minutes, I will have the suburban police department escort you out in handcuffs.”
Evelyn’s eyes narrowed into bitter, venomous slits as she slowly stood up from the sofa, smoothing down her expensive linen trousers.

“You’re choosing this woman and a child over your own blood?” Evelyn spat, her voice dripping with years of accumulated arrogance.
“You’ll regret this day, Mark. Without our corporate connections, your company will be bankrupt before the end of the fiscal quarter.”
