Chapter 8 / 27
Chapter 8 - THE FIRST TEMPORARY ORDERRachel Kim did not care whether I was secretly wealthy.
She cared about Saturday night.
“Did Richard strike you?”
“No.”
“Did he restrain you?”
“He blocked the door.”
“Did he threaten you?”
“Not directly.”
“Has he hit you before?”
I paused.
“Yes.”
“How often?”
“Three times.”
There.
Reality.
One shove into a kitchen cabinet.
One slap after I challenged a credit-card charge.
One wrist grab that left bruises.
I had photographed only the wrist.
Rachel requested temporary protective relief and emergency parenting arrangements based on the full pattern, the birthday video, and Lily witnessing the incident.
No instant permanent custody.
