Chapter 5 - The Dark Extortion
I slammed the heavy door in his face and felt my entire world violently crash down around me in a matter of seconds.
My husband was not only a terrible, unsupportive partner, but he was also a massive corporate thief who had maliciously stolen from my own family.
I walked into the kitchen and poured myself a tall glass of dark red wine to steady my violently shaking hands.
I realized that every single moment of our five-year marriage had been built on a foundation of absolute, calculated lies and immense greed.
He had specifically targeted me because of my father's wealth, utilizing his children to slowly break down my boundaries and drain my resources.
I quickly dialed my father's private cell phone and warned him to instantly freeze every single account associated with Daniel's corporate access.
My father listened quietly, his voice turning cold and lethal as he promised to send a team of forensic accountants to destroy Daniel's entire life.
The peaceful silence of the house was suddenly shattered by the incredibly loud sound of breaking glass coming from the back patio.
I rushed to the living room and saw that Jason had bypassed the new locks by throwing a heavy stone planter through the sliding glass door.
He desperately wanted to retrieve his expensive gaming console, completely ignoring the massive destruction he was causing to my home.
He clumsily climbed through the jagged, broken glass, severely slicing his arm open on a sharp shard remaining in the metal frame.
Dark red blood poured down his arm, dripping heavily onto my hardwood floors as he stumbled into the kitchen.
Instead of asking for a bandage or apologizing for the damage, Jason pulled his cell phone from his pocket with a wicked, evil grin.
He quickly dialed emergency services and falsely reported that his deranged, violent stepmother had just attacked him with a large kitchen knife.
He screamed into the phone, faking absolute terror and begging the dispatcher to send the police before I managed to kill him.

I stood perfectly still, watching the teenage monster execute a terrifyingly brilliant plan to completely ruin my life.
I knew that a bleeding child calling the police on an angry stepmother would instantly result in my immediate, undeniable arrest.
