Chapter 7 - The Prenuptial ClauseVictoria tried one final weapon.
“You can't take my money.”
Mark looked at her.
“It was never yours.”
She laughed nervously.
“You married me.”
“And you signed a prenuptial agreement.”
Victoria's face changed.
“Clause twelve.”
She remembered.
Any conviction involving violent felony, fraud, or criminal intent against an immediate family member would void her financial claims.
Every dollar.
Every property claim.
Every trust distribution.
Everything.
Victoria stared at him.
“You planned this.”
“No.”
Mark's voice softened.
“I never thought I'd need it.”
He looked at Lily.
“I wish I had.”
For the first time, Victoria realized that she had lost everything.
Not just the estate.
Not just the money.

She had lost control.
And control was the one thing she could never live without.
