Chapter 5 - Daniel Confronts His Mother With Arrogant Entitlement Issues
Within twenty minutes, Daniel was speeding down the highway toward his mother’s secure estate in his luxury German sedan.
He pulled through the wrought-iron security gates without waiting for permission, parking haphazardly on the pristine cobblestone driveway.
He bounded up the front steps and slammed his fist against the heavy mahogany door until the estate butler opened it cautiously.
“Where is she, Arthur? I need to speak to my mother right now,” Daniel demanded, brushing past the elderly employee uninvited.
Margaret sat calmly in the sunlit conservatory, sipping chamomile tea and reading a classic hardcover novel by the window.
“You’re shouting in my house, Daniel,” Margaret noted quietly, not even looking up from her book as he stormed into the room.
“Mom, what the hell is going on? Our bank accounts are frozen, and we just received a foreclosure notice on the house!” Daniel shouted.
Margaret slowly closed her book, placed a silk bookmark between the pages, and raised her clear, unblinking eyes to meet his gaze.
“You received a foreclosure notice because I stopped paying your mortgage last night,” Margaret answered with absolute, chilling calm.

Daniel stared at her as if she had spoken in a foreign language, his mouth opening and closing without producing any sound.
“You... you did what? That’s our home! How could you just cut off our funding without even giving us a warning?” he stammered.
