“Here are the things that you asked me for last time,” Lawyer Alcaraz smiled as she handed Izzy a tablet with a USB drive on top of it.

Izzy took the USB from the table and slipped it into her bag. Then, she picked up the tablet and started scrolling through its contents. Her eyes narrowed slightly as she read. Something caught her attention.

“Are you sure about this, Atty. Alcaraz?” she asked, looking up from the screen. “Monica’s father… he’s alive?”

Maria Alcaraz nodded. “Yes. The records confirm it. The man who fathered Monica is still living but is drowning in debt. Apparently, Amalia has been using her money to keep him afloat”

Izzy recalled Amalia’s words over the years–telling her mother, and even Izzy herself, that her husband had passed away long ago. Was that a lie all this time?

“The transactions, Maria continued. “Include regular bank transfers, large sums of money being funneled to cover his debts, and even credit cards under Amalia’s name issued to him. He cannot get his own credit card after wrecking his credit score. And it’s been going on for years. In fact, half of the household budget you provide has been diverted to sustain his lifestyle and his gambling.”

Atty. Alcaraz continued, “You can see the records. He and Amalia have been gambling for years. Your grandfather was informed of this in the past, but he feared that if we reported it to you, you might not believe it and would start to resent his interference.”

Izzy clenched her jaw. Her eyes glossed over the reports that showed how much had been spent on gambling and paying debts instead of proper household maintenance. “So she’s been lying to me for years, bleeding my accounts to support this… parasite?” At this point, she no longer had the energy to be angry Still, she couldn’t help but blame herself for being such a fool.

Maria gave a solemn nod. “It seems that way. And there’s more. Monica is aware of the situation. We found correspondence between her and Amalia discussing how to keep you from finding out and even her giving money to her father.”

Izzy leaned back in her chair, exhaling slowly. “Of course, she knew,” she murmured to herself. “So Amalia is in debt?”

“Yes, to loan sharks. However, it seems that she used this money to obtain the title that she stole from you.”

“Who would give her that amount of money?” Izzy frowned. These properties are worth hundreds of thousands.
