Now, they were attempting to use the legal system to steal my house in front of a judge and the entire city.

The lawsuit alleged that my grandfather Arthur was not of sound mind when he drafted the final version of his will.

It also implied that I had used undue influence and manipulation to coerce him into leaving me the Riverside Park property.

I read those cruel, fabricated lines while sitting in the hotel cafe, feeling a sense of cold courage that replaced my desire to cry.

I immediately contacted Leo Bennett, a high-profile attorney who specialized in complex inheritance law and family disputes.

He spent several days reviewing the will, Arthur’s medical records, the security footage, and the statements from the building staff.

After he finished reading the final document in the folder, he looked at me with a mixture of pity and professional resolve.

“They do not have a legitimate legal case, Elara, but they certainly have an incredible amount of audacity,” Leo remarked.

He was absolutely right, as my grandfather had been meticulous in ensuring that his final wishes were legally bulletproof.
