Chapter 10 - The Warehouse Revealed The Ledger
Police searched the Norfolk warehouse.
Behind a false wall they found decades-old financial records.
The missing ledger showed fraudulent claim settlements, shell-company transfers, and investments routed through intermediaries.
Charles Mercer’s name did not appear as a knowing participant.
Margaret’s old notes supported that she discovered the suspicious source only after the money had already entered a fund used in one Mercer development.
Victor had wanted the ledger destroyed because several of his private consulting clients were connected to people exposed by the records.
He had manipulated Rachel’s camera, monitored the mansion, and tried to turn suspicion toward Charles and Michael.
Victor was arrested on charges related to unlawful entry, computer intrusion, and evidence tampering while investigators examined additional conduct.
Michael also faced consequences for trespassing and identity misuse.
Anna’s unauthorized entry was investigated separately.
Nobody became innocent merely because Victor had the darkest motive.
Then Charles found an envelope hidden inside Margaret’s old desk.
It was addressed to Daniel.
