Genevieve always trusted her instincts, and they screamed warning signals when her ex-husband, Anthony, arrived with a massive rocking horse for their son, Ethan. While Ethan was thrilled with the unexpected gift, Genevieve couldn’t ignore the nagging feeling that something was off. Anthony’s decision to cancel their usual pizza outing only fueled her doubts.
As the days passed, Ethan became inseparable from the toy. But then, odd clicking sounds started coming from the horse. Initially dismissing them as harmless, Genevieve eventually decided to take a closer look. Her search revealed a secret compartment housing a voice recorder. The truth hit her hard: Anthony had planted the device to spy on her and gather ammunition for a custody dispute.
Furious but focused, Genevieve contacted her lawyer, who assured her that illegally obtained recordings wouldn’t stand up in court. Determined to turn the tables, she recorded hours of random TV audio onto the device, making it utterly worthless. When Anthony came to collect the recorder during his next visit, Genevieve knew he’d walk away empty-handed. His silence afterward confirmed her suspicions—he had been defeated.
For Genevieve, the incident reinforced her commitment to protecting her son. No matter what tricks Anthony tried, she would always stay one step ahead to ensure Ethan’s safety and happiness.
