Chapter 6 - Eleanor Tries To Destroy The Final Secret
Hearing mention of her private wall safe, Eleanor lunged forward with unexpected speed toward the mahogany sideboard.
She slammed her palm down on a hidden panic button built beneath the polished wooden serving counter.
“If I’m going down, this entire house goes down with me!” Eleanor cackled maniacally as an alarm began to sound.
A heavy steel fire shutter descended over the dining room windows, plunging the space into dim amber emergency light.
Agent Miller reacted instantly, tackling Eleanor to the floor just as she tried to swallow a small micro-SD card.
“Grab her jaw! Stop her from destroying the evidence!” Agent Miller shouted to his supporting officers.
