I left the mansion at 5:48.

Soon, Daniel’s black Mercedes followed my car toward the airport, Margaret riding beside him.

They apparently wanted front-row seats to my humiliation.

They didn’t know Ramirez had already alerted airport police, and investigators were documenting their attempted scheme.

Another arrived moments later.

For the first time in seven years, I no longer feared Daniel’s next move.

Instead, I wondered how he’d defend his previous actions.
