Cody had been playing in the estate’s car park, his usual carefree self, when disaster struck. The paint bucket he was using tipped over, splattering thick blue paint onto one of the luxury cars parked nearby. It wasn’t just any car, it was Victoria’s, the sleek G-Wagon .
It didn’t take long before Victoria’s shrill voice echoed through the halls of the house. Cody, dragged by the wrist, was being hauled back inside by Victoria, her face twisted in fury. Alexis was in the dining room, but the commotion was impossible to ignore. She stood up quickly, her heart racing as she made her way towards the entrance hall.
As soon as she reached the room, Alexis saw Victoria looming over Cody, who was cowering and trying to explain, though it was clear he was terrified.
“You ruined my car!” Victor
