Khloe would be blamed for the financial collapse because several fraudulent loan documents carried her electronic signature.

“They forged my name,” Khloe whispered.

Maya turned the laptop toward her.

“On at least eleven documents.”

Harrison stood near the window, completely motionless.

That stillness frightened everyone who worked for him.

It meant he had stopped reacting emotionally.

He was building a case.

“They were going to make me look responsible,” Khloe said.

“Yes,” Harrison answered.

“And Richard was going to use the criminal investigation to take custody of my daughter.”

Harrison turned from the window.

“He was going to try.”

Khloe’s face crumpled.

For the first time since discovering the affair, her pain transformed into something stronger.

Anger.

Not reckless anger.

Not the kind that broke dishes or screamed into telephones.

The kind that made a frightened woman straighten her spine.

“What do we do?”

Harrison placed a folder on the table.

“We file for divorce.”

He added a second folder.

“We request an emergency freeze on the marital assets.”

A third folder followed.

“We notify federal investigators about the fraudulent transfers.”

Then he placed one final document in front of her.

“And we make sure Richard Harrington never uses your name to destroy another human being.”
