Chapter 10 - Rachel Files Emergency Federal And State Injunctions
Rachel Kim didn't waste a single afternoon following the confrontation on my front porch.

Rachel called me from her office while reviewing the court docket updates on her computer screen. "Margaret, the judge granted our emergency asset freeze across all of Daniel and Vanessa's joint bank accounts," Rachel announced victoriously.
"Does that include the investment accounts Daniel secretly opened last month?" I asked, recalling our earlier suspicions. "Every single dollar they touched has been locked down by federal and state financial regulators," Rachel confirmed.
