Chapter 7 - Arthur Confronts The Terrified Family Members In The Drawing Room

The drawing room was furnished with antique mahogany furniture, a roaring stone fireplace, and a large American flag.
Arthur stood by the heavy oak doors, blocking any exit while Marcus and the guards positioned themselves outside.

“Our digital system records every keycard swipe and biometric door unlock across every single wing of this mansion.”
