“Melissa, you have to come back… with a lawyer. Kara’s hiding something. Grandma Eleanor left her business to you, not Kara. They’re planning to steal it.”Shock turned to determination. Melissa called her trusted lawyer and returned to confront Kara.
The confrontation shocked the entire party—Kara’s lawyer confessed to plans to forge documents and steal the inheritance. Kara’s mask crumbled as the truth came out: the business was rightfully Melissa’s, just as Eleanor had wished.
Walking away from the party with Emma by her side, Melissa felt a weight lift. It wasn’t just about the business or the money. It was the knowledge that Eleanor had believed in her, had chosen her to carry on her legacy.
And in that moment, Melissa felt Eleanor’s presence guiding her forward, ready for whatever came next.
