“Charlotte checked her location-sharing app when her fiancé Bradly claimed he was stuck in bridge traffic. Instead, she found him parked two blocks away, letting his first love playfully twist his silk tie. "Charlotte is just a safe backup plan." Hearing him say those words shattered her completely, but throwing the ring in his face was only the beginning of her nightmare. Her parents stormed into her apartment, furious that the broken engagement ruined their corporate funding, and tried to physically assault her. When that failed, her family rushed to the hospice where her grandmother was dying. They dragged the frail woman up by her armpits, forcing a pen into her trembling hand to steal her only apartment building. When Charlotte threw herself over the bed to protect her, her own mother clawed her neck, and her father swung a metal IV pole at her head. The sheer terror was too much, and her grandmother's heart monitor flatlined. Charlotte wept on the floor, unable to understand how her own flesh and blood could trade her for investments and torture a dying woman out of pure greed. But at the funeral, when her parents smugly handed her a lawsuit to seize the assets, Charlotte didn't shed a single tear. "If you don't drop this suit by tomorrow, I will counter-sue you for malicious prosecution." She pulled out a ten-year-old property deed with her own name on it, crushing their greedy dreams instantly. Then, she put on her sharpest black suit and headed to her ex-fiancé's company to completely dismantle his family's empire.”
