My brother drove three hours to my farm, dropped a court order on my table, and told me I had thirty days before I’d be evicted—while my mother stood behind him, cold and silent. He called it “family debt,” said I owed everyone, and acted like my life’s work was already gone.
But when the county assessor arrived, a black SUV pulled in behind him. A woman stepped out, looked straight at me, and claimed me as her client. In minutes, the truth surfaced: the “failing farm” was a thriving, multi-million-dollar operation, and my brother’s case collapsed just as quickly as his confidence.
