Diane stood beside him in her sparkling green sequined dress, holding her champagne flute, looking smug and triumphant.

Dianeâs face contorted in sudden, furious shock! âSecurity! Get this server off the stage immediately!â
Two security guards moved forward, but Richard raised a firm hand, stopping them in their tracks.

âThis is the proof that your foundationâs director and your sister-in-law are stealing from your charity,â Imogen announced loudly for the entire room to hear!
