Chapter 15 - THE FEDERAL SWARM
Three federal agents in dark tactical windbreakers stepped into the executive office, weapons holstered but hands ready.
"Julian Vance, you are under federal arrest for wire fraud, corporate racketeering, and conspiracy to commit kidnapping," Agent Miller announced.
Julian stumbled backward, knocking over his crystal bourbon glass as the amber liquid spilled across the wooden desk.
"This is a mistake! I am the CEO of Vance Global! You can't touch me!" Julian shouted, thrashing against the agents.
Agent Miller ignored his protests, snapping heavy steel handcuffs around Julian’s wrists with practiced efficiency.
"You have the right to remain silent, Mr. Vance," Miller recited as they dragged the corrupt CEO toward the elevator.
Julian cast one final, murderous glare at Mark over his shoulder as the elevator doors closed shut.
Mark stood alone in the quiet penthouse office, looking out over the glittering lights of the American metropolis.
The storm that had threatened to tear his family apart had finally broken, leaving clear skies on the horizon.
He slipped his phone back into his pocket, turning away from the window to begin the journey back home.
