Chapter 4 - Ethan Found Daniel’s Secret Folder
Ethan finally explained the first incident.
Three weeks earlier, he went into Daniel’s study looking for a charger.
A folder was open on the desk.
Inside were documents with Laura’s name.
He recognized one word:
INCAPACITY.
Ethan did not understand it.
He took a photograph because Daniel had been acting strangely.
Margaret caught him.
She grabbed the phone and deleted the picture.
Then she told Ethan never to enter the study again.
“But I saved it somewhere else,” he said.
Laura looked at him.
“Where?”
“My school cloud.”
The photograph showed a petition draft.
It asked a court to appoint Daniel temporary controller of Laura’s
financial interests based on alleged emotional instability and impaired
judgment.
Attached was a list of incidents.
Laura had never seen it.
Some were exaggerated.
Some were completely false.
Then she saw the proposed supporting witness.
Margaret Bennett.

Her mother-in-law had been documenting her for months.
And Daniel knew.
