Smith was surprised but it was Janice her 21-year-old daughter who truly caught Richard off guard Janice a law student was Furious when she heard about Richard's plan to hide the money from Angela she knew it was morally wrong and possibly illegal Janice kept the secret but a sense of Injustice grew within her she had known Angela since childhood and couldn't allow such a thing to happen to such a good woman Janice decided she would help Angela but needed time to figure out the best way to do so meanwhile Richard continued with his plans believing he
was in control of everything until he made a decision the following day Richard sat at the kitchen table watching Angela as she prepared breakfast he was nervous but decided it was the right time to present the divorce papers after a few minutes of silence he finally spoke Angela we need to talk he said trying to keep his voice steady Angela turned to him a look of curiosity mixed with concern on her face what is it Richard did something happen Richard took a deep breath and placed the papers on the table I want a divorce Angela

Richard was hiding something determined to find out the truth she put the papers back on the table I'm not signing this she said firmly not until I know what's really going on Richard tried to insist but Angela left the kitchen leaving him alone with his thoughts she needed help and knew exactly who to turn to Angela went to Mrs Sadi Smith's house and found Janice studying in the living room she sat next to the young woman and told her about Richard's request for a divorce he said he doesn't love me anymore but I know something

and sadness but I didn't expect this from him we need to act fast Janice said I will talk to my professors and some well-known lawyers I know to see how we can proceed don't worry we will find a way to sort this out in the following days Janice consulted various law professors and experienced lawyers about Angela's case she detailed the situation seeking advice on how to protect Angela's rights and ensure Richard didn't get away with his attempt to deceive her meanwhile Angela began to observe Richard more closely trying to find clues about the lottery ticket
she knew that if she could find the ticket she would have an ace up her sleeve to confront him as Richard continued to press Angela to sign the divorce papers she remained steadfast she knew the truth was about to be revealed and that with Janice's help she would be able to confront Richard and secure what was rightfully hers Angela and Janice sat at Mrs sad Smith's kitchen table with a clear plan in front of them they knew they had to be cautious but they also knew time was against them Richard continued to press Angela to
sign the divorce papers and with each passing day he became more insistent and impatient first we need to find the ticket Janice pointed out indicating the first step in their plan without it our chances of success are greatly reduced Angela nodded he always carries his wallet with him but there are times he leaves it at home like when he takes a shower or goes to sleep we need to take advantage of those opportunities Janice agreed additionally we need to document everything we need evidence that he's trying to hide the lottery ticket from you to benefit
from the divorce that will be crucial if we need to go to court with the plan in hand Angela returned home determined to follow each step carefully she began to watch Richard more closely paying attention to his habits and routines every moment he left his wallet out of sight was a potential opportunity meanwhile Janice was busy seeking advice from her professors and lawyers she discussed the case in detail receiving guidance on how to proceed legally the lawyers suggested several strategies including the possibility of filing a petition in court to prevent the completion of the divorce
until the ticket issue was resolved that night Richard was especially insistent he handed the divorce papers to Angela again with a clear expression of frustration on his face Angela this needs to end why are you making this so difficult he said trying to stay calm Angela looked Richard straight in the eyes I won't sign anything until I know the truth Richard you're hiding something from me and I won't give up until I find out what it is Richard tried to disguise his impatience there's nothing to find out just sign the papers and move on Angela
stood firm I won't sign not until I know the truth Richard huffed and left the room leaving Angela alone she knew she was playing a dangerous game but she was determined not to give in days passed and the tension in the house grew every moment Richard was increasingly nervous and suspicious and Angela knew she had to act soon finally the opportunity she had been waiting for arrived d one night Richard left his wallet on the kitchen table before going to take a shower Angela waited until she heard the shower running before quietly approaching the table
with trembling hands she opened the wallet and began searching for the lottery ticket her heart raced as she found the piece of paper hidden among some receipts there it was the lottery ticket that would change their lives forever Angela took the ticket and quickly hid it in a safe place when Richard came out of the shower Angela was calmly sitting at the table as if nothing had happened he did not notice the ticket was missing and continued his routine still believing he was in control of the situation the next morning Angela went to Mrs sad
