Chapter 15 - Federal Agents Freeze All Corporate Accounts Instantly
The heavy steel door of Marcus’s wall safe clicked open, exposing rows of cash bundles, bearer bonds, and microcassettes.
Marcus lunged forward in a desperate attempt to slam the safe shut, but two security guards tackled him to the floor instantly.
“Get this traitor off my rug and cuff him properly!” Julian commanded, stepping back to inspect the contents.
He reached inside the safe and picked up one of the vintage microcassette tapes resting on the top shelf.
“What’s on that tape, Marcus? Is this where you and Victoria recorded your murder plans against Clara?” Julian asked darkly.
Marcus spat onto the carpet, refusing to utter a single word as federal auditors began cataloging the seized bearer bonds.
A senior federal agent stepped into the office holding a secure satellite phone linked directly to the banking clearinghouse.
“Mr. Vance, every domestic and international subsidiary account linked to Marcus and Victoria has just been locked down,” the agent reported.
“They are officially penniless, stripped of every stolen dollar they manipulated out of your family trust,” he added with satisfaction.
Julian let out a long, heavy breath, feeling decades of accumulated grief and burden finally lift from his shoulders.
