Chapter 15 - Returning to the Estate to Confront the Patriarch

That evening, a convoy of federal transport vehicles surrounded the grand gates of the primary Kincaid family estate.
Lucas stepped out of his car, walking up the sweeping stone steps toward the massive mahogany double doors.
He didn't knock; he simply pushed the doors open, stepping into the grand foyer of his childhood home.
Daria Kincaid sat at the head of the long dining table, sipping tea as if she were waiting for him.
“You’re playing a very dangerous game, Lucas, dragging federal agents into family business,” Daria said coldly.
“Your family business is a criminal syndicate, Mother, and your reign of terror ends tonight,” Lucas stated firmly.
Daria set her teacup down, a chilling smile touching her lips as she looked toward the shadows of the staircase.
“You think a few federal warrants can destroy what I spent forty years building?” she challenged him.
“I didn't come here to negotiate with you, Mother; I came to watch you lose everything you stole,” Lucas replied.
