Chapter 17 - A RUTHLESS FAMILY RETURN
While peace reigned in the Hamptons, a dark storm was quietly gathering across the Atlantic Ocean in London.
Inside a private gentleman's club in Mayfair, General Victor Montgomery sat reviewing international legal files.
Victor was Eleanor's older brother, a retired military contractor who managed private security firms across Eastern Europe.
A junior associate handed Victor a leather dossier detailing the total bankruptcy and imprisonment of the Montgomery family.
Victor swirled his dark amber cognac, his cold gray eyes narrowing with calculated, murderous intent.
"Ethan Vance ruined my family's reputation and put my sister in a federal cage," Victor stated, his voice like gravel.
"Mr. Vance has fortified his Westchester estate with top-tier security," the associate warned nervously.
Victor set his glass down on the mahogany table with a heavy thud that shook the crystal coasters.
"Corporate security means nothing against military mercenaries," Victor hissed softly. "Prepare my private jet for New York."
