Chapter 15 - Claire Serves Formal Notice Of Immediate Divorce Proceedings
The heavy front door clicked open once more, but this time it wasn't building security or a panicked husband.
Two uniformed process servers walked into the apartment, stepping forward with official manila document folders in their hands.
“Mr. Daniel Bennett?” the lead process server asked formally, stopping directly in front of the armchair.
Daniel looked up in sheer horror as the documents were pressed firmly into his trembling hands.
“You have been officially served with notice of immediate divorce proceedings, asset freezing orders, and felony fraud charges,” the server stated.
Daniel dropped the papers onto the floor as if they were burning hot coals, staring up at his wife with unmitigated terror.

“You already had the papers drawn up before I even walked through the door?” Daniel choked out, his voice shaking violently.
“I don't waste time negotiating with thieves, Daniel,” Claire answered, turning her back on him to look out at the city lights.
