Legacy First

Finally

The sisters and Mattie were planning and plotting Russell's demise. The sisters saw Maddie's growth but didn't trust her to admit it.

Mattie would come to the house to cook for the girls and spend time talking to them. She became a mother in less than one month, more than she's been there her whole life.

Mattie came up with a plan to have the 17-year-old sex-trafficked girl call the police and reveal everything about Russell.

As they take Russell to jail, Denise pretends that she's the loving and doting wife who was hurt by the awful things that her husband did and wants to leave him.

Russell: " Denise, I need you and the boy to attend my press release next week. I need some good press. Elections are coming up."

Denise shook her head. "Our son has a name, it's Joyous, you jackass, and -oop, Russell, what are the police doing here?"

Russell shoved Denise out the window. " I don't know, but I'm leaving through the back. Tell them I wasn't here."

She didn't know what was happening: "What do you mean? Where are you going? What did you do?"

Russell grabbed her face hard and said, "You would do as I say. You won't say anything to the police. Do you hear me?"

Denise, in pain from the way he was grabbing her face, said, "Yes, stop, please." She was grateful her son was with her sisters.

Russell ran to the back of the house, ready to escape the police. He knew that people were willing to snitch on him because he made enemies worldwide.

The cops came rushing in, knocking the door down. Denise put on her best acting abilities." Wait, please. What are you looking for? Whatever it is, he didn't do it. Please stop." The cops grabbed her and pulled her to the side as they ran after Russell.

Denise continued with her acting, trashed and raved against the police officers, saying, " he's innocent. Please let me go. Whatever it is, he didn't do it. Leave my husband alone. Please don't kill him." In reality, she wanted them to kill him or at least jail him for eons to come.

Denise heard gunshots and got happy because she thought he was dead.

However, later, she found out he wasn't; however, they did have him in custody, wounded from a few gunshots, as Word got out about her husband's heinous crimes of sex, trafficking, young children, and money laundering. Denise had to portray the heartbroken wife, unaware of all her husband's misdeeds.

The press

"Mrs. Chase-"

Denise: "Call me Denise. I don't want any association with that man. I'm changing my son's and my last names after this divorce. I want nothing to do with him." Tears roll down her face in fake despair.

" I gave him all of me, and he betrayed so many people and hurt so many young kids. I had no clue, but I still feel guilty."

That part was genuine. She did feel guilty about being married to a monster, but he was in jail now. She finally got her divorce as he rotted in prison for the next 50 years.

She felt bad for him because she knew that he would be killed in prison because of his crimes against children. However, she let go and let God.

"Now, I will focus on my son and sisters. I would love for everybody not to associate me with him anymore because I had no idea of his mistakes and horrific behavior.

I apologize to all the families and victims of my ex-husband. I pray you will strive and move on with life to the best of your abilities. Thank you."

Her family rallied around her, hugging her, and looked like the strong family unit they had become.

Could all the sisters move on and do what they wanted? They still had their husbands' riches, so they had little to worry about money.

Their values were still God first and family second. They still had their mother and were learning to trust her, but she was slowly proving herself.

Life was great for the sisters, and they thanked God for the blessings and the pain they had endured.
