Chapter 7 - Austin Investor Recognizes the True Threat
Miles away in downtown Austin, billionaire import tycoon Richard Vance sat in his glass-walled penthouse office reviewing morning files.
His daughter Chloe’s phone call had woken him up early, complaining that Ethan’s credit cards were acting up.
Richard frowned as he looked over the financial backing profile of the man his daughter was currently living with.
“Ethan Vance claims he’s a senior director at Sterling Crest Group,” Richard murmured thoughtfully to his chief legal advisor.
“Sir, Sterling Crest Group is a multi-billion-dollar global conglomerate owned exclusively by Claire Sterling,” the advisor noted.
Richard’s eyes widened slightly as the terrifying weight of that name registered in his experienced business mind.
“Claire Sterling... the notoriously private billionaire who never allows her personal life to touch the press?” Richard asked sharply.

“The very same, sir. And public registry records show she has been legally married to an Ethan Vance for seven years.”
Richard slammed his fist onto the mahogany desk, realizing his daughter had just blown up her life by bedding a penniless subordinate.
