Tyler: Chloe, who are all these men in suits?!
Chloe: You thought I was alone in this world, Tyler. You were wrong.
Tiffany: Tyler, tell them to get off our private property right now!
Mr. Harrison: This property no longer belongs to Tyler Vance, young lady.
A tall man with graying hair stepped out of the lead black SUV, holding a thick leather briefcase. He walked up the driveway with calm, imposing authority.
Tyler: Mr. Harrison? The top corporate lawyer in the state?
Mr. Harrison: I represent the Sterling Global Estate and Mrs. Chloe Vance.
Tiffany: Sterling? As in Sterling Enterprise Holdings?!
Chloe: My maiden name is Chloe Sterling, Tiffany. Did Tyler forget to tell you that?
Tyler: You... you told me your father was a retired small-town mechanic!
Chloe: My father owned a small shop forty years ago before he built the largest logistics network in North America. I wanted a man who loved me for who I was, not my money.
Tyler: Chloe... wait, let's go inside and talk about this privately!
Chloe: There is nothing left to talk about, Tyler.
An older man stepped out of the back seat of the SUV. He wore a crisp dark suit and held a silver-headed walking stick. His eyes were cold as he looked at Tyler.
Marcus Sterling: So you're the boy who threw my pregnant daughter out onto the street.
Tyler: Mr. Sterling! I... I didn't know she was your daughter!
Marcus Sterling: Does it matter whose daughter she is?! You threw a pregnant woman down the stairs of her own home!
Tiffany: Sir, Chloe was being completely unreasonable! She insulted Tyler!
Marcus Sterling: Be quiet, girl, before my legal team adds a defamation lawsuit to your personal records.
Tiffany flinched and stepped back behind Tyler, her arrogant smile completely disappearing.
Tyler: Mr. Sterling, please! This is a simple misunderstanding between husband and wife!
Mr. Harrison: It is not a misunderstanding, Mr. Vance. It is a total financial default.
Tyler: What do you mean default?!
Mr. Harrison: The deed to this mansion, your business loans, and your company fleet were all underwritten by Sterling Capital as part of your prenuptial agreement.
Tyler: No... no, that's impossible!
Mr. Harrison: Due to your breach of the infidelity and spousal abuse clauses, all assets have been frozen effective five minutes ago.
Chloe: Pick up my suitcase, Tyler. The same way you threw it down.
Tyler: Chloe, please! I love you! I was confused!
Chloe: You weren't confused when you brought her into our bed. Escort me to the car, Dad.
Marcus put his arm around Chloe's shoulders, guiding her gently into the warm, comfortable interior of the SUV while the attorneys moved toward the mansion front door.
