Chapter 10 - The Public Exposure
By noon, news of the Vance family drama had spread across the elite social circles of Manhattan like wildfire.
Page Six of the New York Post published a featured article titled: Investment Director Evicted From Tribeca Penthouse By Pregnant Heiress.
A photograph of Julian carrying black garbage bags out of the building was posted on every major social media platform.
The story went viral across Facebook and Instagram, generating thousands of comments mocking his arrogant "100 wives" statement.
“He thought he was a king, but he was just a tenant in his wife's world!” one top comment read.
“Imagine trading a five-million-dollar penthouse for a cheap bowl of ramen in the rain!” another user posted.
Inside a private VIP suite at Mount Sinai Hospital, I sat comfortably in an armchair, watching the news coverage on television.
My sister Victoria stood beside me, handing me a warm cup of herbal tea and a tablet containing legal updates.
"Julian's legal team tried to file an emergency motion for temporary spousal support this morning," Victoria reported.
"The judge threw it out in five minutes after reviewing the evidence of his mother's fraud."
"What about his position at the firm?" I asked, taking a quiet sip of my tea.
"The board voted unanimously to terminate his contract without severance," Victoria replied with a satisfied smile.

I looked down at my baby bump, feeling a deep sense of peace wash over me for the first time in years.
