As soon as I left the chair, the figure lunged forward, crashing into the chair with a loud thud. The entire room gasped in unison—I was too stunned to react immediately.

"Grace, you wretched woman! I can't believe I served you for ten years, and you turned out to be a vicious, ungrateful harpy!"
She began listing my supposed crimes, "You've seized the Smith Family's assets, sent the old man to prison, constantly opposed our George. Even when Fiona was heavily pregnant, you had the heart to push her so viciously. Are you even human?"
