Chapter 3: The Family Secret
Emma couldn’t understand what she was seeing.
Her husband.
Her sister.
Her mother.
All connected.
The documents revealed something shocking.
Years ago, when Emma and Daniel married, Daniel’s company was struggling financially.
Emma believed they built their life together from nothing.
But the truth was different.
Emma’s father had secretly invested money into Daniel’s business before he died.
The agreement was simple.
If Daniel ever betrayed Emma, the company would belong to her.
But someone had changed the contract.
Someone had removed Emma’s protection.
And the person who signed the new documents…
Was her own mother.
Emma confronted her.
Her mother didn’t deny it.
“I was protecting the family.”
Emma stared at her.
“Which family?”
Her mother remained silent.
Then she admitted the truth.
Daniel had been planning to leave Emma after securing everything.
Claire was only a distraction.
A way to make Emma look unstable if she discovered the truth.
Emma felt sick.
