I Could See Their Hidden Motives Chapter 10
After the Lynches went to prison, I still wasn't finished with them.Over the next six months, I used my shares to take control of what was left of the Lynch family's business empire and launched my own film and media company.After that, I sold the rights to their story. A family trying to harvest their biological daughter's organs. A father raising another man's child as his own. A household that eventually tore itself apart. The true-crime documentary became a massive hit, followed by a serialized drama that was sold around the world.Together, they made billions.They once treated me like a spare set of organs. Now, their downfall was making me rich.That afternoon, I carried a stack of documents into the psychiatric wing of a maximum-security prison.In the visitation room, I looked through the glass at the four people who had destroyed my childhood.Minutes earlier, they were screaming at one another, fighting over money and blaming everyone but themselves for how they e

Three days later, I was in the executive conference room on the top floor of Lynch Corporation.Despite the scandal tearing through the family, Wesley spent a fortune getting himself out on bail. Now, he sat at the head of the table with a bandage wrapped around the side of his head.He had called an emergency board meeting. He was prepared to liquidate the entire company if that was what it took to save Cassidy from facing the death penalty.In his mind, she was still the daughter he had with his first love, the only piece of that relationship he had left.Across the table, Albert slid an asset transfer agreement toward him.He adjusted his glasses and spoke carefully. "Mr. Lynch, once you sign this, the funds can be moved into offshore accounts. Ms. Cassidy will have enough to live comfortably for the rest of her life. If we can get her out, you can always rebuild later."Wesley's eyes turned red as he reached for the pen.Through the glass, I saw the most shocking label yet

At 3 p.m., I sat across from Howard in the detention center's visitation room. He was charged with attempted murder, but he still didn't seem to think he had done anything wrong.The second he saw me through the glass, he snatched up the phone and started to shout. "Evelyn! Are you happy now?! You destroyed this family! So what if Cassidy lied? So what if that so-called psychic was a fraud? She gave me blood after my car accident. She saved my life!"He jabbed a finger at his right leg, the one that still made him walk with a slight limp."I owe Cassidy my life. If saving hers means sacrificing yours, then so be it!"He was so desperate to justify what he did that he completely stopped making sense.As long as he could keep telling himself that Cassidy once saved him, he wouldn't have to face the truth that he tried to kill his own sister.Just then, the door to the visitation room opened.Albert, now representing Cassidy, walked in. He was carrying a watch in a small velvet

At 6 a.m., we were at the city police station. I stood outside the interrogation room.Rachel had completely fallen apart. Her hair was disheveled as she sat across from the detectives, but she was still desperately trying to protect Cassidy."Officer, Cassidy is innocent! She can't go to prison!"She slammed both hands on the table, nearly hysterical."Cassidy is the reason this family has everything it does! We were told years ago that she was destined to bring this family success. And look at us now. Evelyn has brought us nothing but misery. She deserves to die! If Cassidy needs a heart, then Evelyn should be the one to give it to her!"I stood behind the one-way glass.The woman on the other side sounded completely unhinged.She was willing to take the fall for attempted murder just to protect the girl she had somehow convinced herself was the source of the family's success.Wesley had been taken into the interrogation room next door. As chairman of Lynch Corporation, he wa

At 2 a.m., we were in a private room at the Lynch family's hospital.Police officers were stationed at both ends of the hallway.Wesley had pulled some strings and gotten hospital security posted outside the room, giving the family a few minutes alone.Cassidy lay in bed with an oxygen mask over her face, pretending to drift in and out of consciousness.A 600 million-dollar tax scandal could bankrupt the Lynches. If Cassidy was arrested, it was only a matter of time before the investigation led back to Wesley and Howard. They were running out of options.Wesley glanced at Rachel, his expression turning cold.Rachel understood immediately. With her back to me, she walked over to the water dispenser and filled a cup with warm water.Her hands trembled as she brought it over. Her eyes filled with tears, and they began spilling down her cheeks."Evelyn, Cassidy doesn't have much time left. The doctors said she may not make it through the night."She held the glass out to me."D

The entire ballroom went silent, every eye on me.I looked at Wesley, then Rachel, then Howard, and finally Cassidy, who stood among the guests, barely able to hide her anticipation.I gave them a cold smile. Then, with a quick flick of my wrist, I poured the champagne all over the agreement."Evelyn! What the hell are you doing?" Howard shouted. He grabbed my arm and squeezed hard.At that exact moment, the ballroom doors burst open."Police! Nobody move!"A team of detectives and financial crimes investigators stormed inside.The music stopped. Guests screamed and scrambled out of the way, pressing themselves against the walls.Wesley froze. He noticed they were financial crimes investigators, and for a split second, his face lit up. He thought Albert had taken care of everything, and that the police were here for me.His expression instantly crumpled into one of outrage and heartbreak. He pointed at me and began to shout."Officers, thank God you're here! She's the one beh
