Chapter 17 - Eleanor Confronts Julian At His Downtown Corporate Headquarters Office
Two weeks later, a desperate and disheveled Eleanor bypassed lobby security by sneaking in behind a delivery crew.
She burst into Julian’s top-floor executive office just as he was reviewing quarterly financial reports with Victoria Vance.
“Julian! You have to drop the federal charges! My lawyers are abandoning me and I have nowhere left to go!” Eleanor sobbed loudly.
Julian did not even look up from his desk, keeping his pen moving steadily across the signature line of the document.
“You made your bed when you stole from my son and tried to push him down the marble stairs,” Julian said coldly.
“I am your wife! We are legally married until the judge signs those papers!” Eleanor screamed, lunging toward the desk.
Victoria Vance stepped forward instantly, blocking her path with professional poise and an unyielding expression.
“Step back, Mrs. Sterling, or I will have the federal marshals escort you directly to a maximum-security holding cell,” Victoria warned.

Eleanor glared at Julian with pure, unadulterated hatred before turning on her heel and storming out of the penthouse office forever.
