Chapter 14 - Hadrian Confronts The Corrupt Corporate Boardroom Accomplices Directly

Hadrian stepped out of the private executive elevator into the boardroom, wearing a tailored charcoal suit and an icy glare.
Waiting at the mahogany table were the three senior board members who had secretly helped fund Vanessa’s offshore accounts.
“Hadrian... this is an unexpected visit,” stammered Arthur Sterling, sweating profusely under his expensive silk collar.
“Save your breath, Arthur,” Hadrian interrupted, tossing a thick stack of federal subpoenas onto the center of the table.
“You helped my ex-fiancée embezzle corporate funds and orchestrate a psychological campaign against my daughter.”

“That’s a baseless accusation, Cole! We’ll sue you for defamation!” another board member shouted defensively.
“Try it,” Hadrian said, leaning over the table until his face was inches from theirs. “The feds are already auditing your offshore accounts.”
