“Letters can say anything.”
“I also have bank statements.”
Vivian stopped.
The room became silent again.
Mr. Bennett continued. “Over eleven years, William Harper transferred ownership of several assets into a protected trust.”
Alyssa appeared confused.
“How many
properties?”
” Seven. “
” Seven ? “
“Seven residential properties, two commercial buildings, his investment portfolio, and a significant portion of his liquid assets.”
Vivian’s eyes widened.
“It’s impossible.”
” No. “
“Are you saying my husband transferred everything?”
” No. “
Mr. Bennett shook his head.
“I’m saying he transferred almost everything.”
Alyssa looked at me.
His expression changed.
” You. “
I didn’t understand.
” What ? “
“You knew.”
” No. “
“You knew it was going to happen.”
“I didn’t know.”
“You found something in Dad’s office.”
I froze.
She had noticed.
“You did it.”
Vivian turned abruptly towards me.
“What did you find?”
I’m not saying anything.
Alyssa stood up.
“You knew that Dad had left something for you.”
“I found some photographs.”
“Which photographs?”
“From me.”
Alyssa’s face contorted.
“Is that all?”
” No. “
I hesitated.
“I found a letter.”
Vivian’s breathing changed.
“Which letter?”
I looked at her.
“The one he wrote to me.”
His face turned completely white.
“Have you read it?”
” Yes. “
“What was she saying?”
