Chapter 5 - Ordering police officers to arrest a disgraced socialite for grand larceny and false reporting as wealthy elite onlookers gasp in total disbelief today.
"That's impossible! She's a nobody! Her mother was just a nurse!" Victoria screamed, her voice cracking as the deputies approached her.
"Her mother was Richard Montgomery's daughter, Victoria; she chose a simple life, but the inheritance remained rightfully hers," Arthur countered firmly.
The senior deputy stepped up to Victoria, pulling heavy steel handcuffs from his leather belt as the crowd pulled out their smartphones to record.
"Victoria Vance, you are under arrest for grand larceny, filing a false police report, and evidence tampering," the deputy stated sternly.
Victoria flinched as the cold metal cuffed her wrists behind her back, her emerald green gown rumpling under the force of the official arrest.
"Harrison! Do something! You can't let them take me in front of these people!" Victoria shrieked, tears smearing her expensive mascara.
"You brought this humiliation upon yourself, Victoria; actions have consequences, even for women with your last name," Harrison replied coldly.
The deputies escorted the weeping socialite out through the grand entrance, past the American flag, and into the waiting police cruiser outside.
