Secrets In The Trust Fund
Secrets In The Trust Fund
Sarah held little Lily close against her side as her whole world fell apart.
She had trusted Mark with her life and her massive inheritance from her late father.
Her family estate was worth millions of dollars in real estate and private stock accounts.
They had signed a strict prenuptial agreement before walking down the aisle together six months ago.
If they got divorced, Mark would walk away with absolutely nothing from her family trust.
But if Sarah passed away unexpectedly, the entire estate would transfer directly into Mark's name.
Sarah connected all the dots in her mind as cold fear settled inside her stomach.
"You wanted the money," Sarah whispered as tears finally filled her brown eyes.
Mark did not deny the accusation as he backed up toward the main entrance door.
"You never loved me or my daughter at all," Sarah added in a cracked voice.
Mark scoffed loudly and looked at her with pure disgust in his eyes.
"You were always so stubborn and hard to manage," Mark sneered without any remorse.
"I gave up six months of my life pretending to care about your pathetic little family!" Mark yelled.
Elena pulled Lily behind her back to keep the little girl safe from the dangerous man.
Sarah reached into her pocket and pulled out her own smartphone to dial the emergency line.
Mark saw her fingers moving fast on the screen and rushed forward to grab her arm.
He lunged across the glass table to knock the phone out of her hands before she dialed.
Sarah jumped back quickly, causing a heavy dining chair to fall backward with a loud bang.
"Call the police right now, Elena!" Sarah shouted as she dodged his aggressive reach.
Elena pressed the emergency button on her phone without hesitating for a single second.
The loud dial tone filled the wide dining room through the phone's speaker system.
Mark cursed loudly and turned his attention toward the heavy wooden front door of the house.
He knew that if the police arrived, he would spend the rest of his life behind bars.
He bolted down the long hallway toward the front door as fast as his feet could move.
Sarah did not try to chase him down the dark hallway of the large Dallas home.
She stood her ground in the dining room to keep her daughter and maid totally safe.

"The police are on their way right now, ma'am," Elena said as she held the phone.
Sarah hugged her maid tightly while tears of immense relief spilled down her soft cheeks.
