Chapter 12 - A Late-Night Confrontation At My Sister’s Apartment
At 2:00 AM, a frantic knock echoed against the front door of my temporary high-rise apartment.
I looked through the peephole to find Chloe standing alone in the hallway, shivering in the cold night air.
I unlocked the deadbolt and pulled the door open just enough to block her from stepping inside.
“Clara, please! You have to help me!” Chloe cried, tears streaming down her pale face.
“The bank just froze my mortgage account, and my car was repossessed an hour ago!”
“You made your bed when you signed those fraudulent proxy documents, Chloe,” I answered coldly.
“Michael told me the accounts would be unfrozen once you signed the final divorce settlement!”

“Then go ask Michael for help, because my lawyers are handling everything through the federal court now.”
I slammed the heavy wooden door in her face, engaging the security chain with a loud, final click.
