Chapter 10 - Sloane Implicates Grant in Secret Financial Scheme
Back in the holding room at the downtown police precinct, Sloane sat shivering across a metal table.
Two detectives slid a comprehensive plea agreement across the scratched surface toward her.
“Grant forced me into this! He told me Emily was signing over the firm voluntarily!” Sloane sobbed hysterically.
“Your signature is on the offshore bank account routing slips in the Cayman Islands, Ms. Vance,” the detective noted coldly.
“Unless you want to take the fall for the entire four million dollars alone, you better start talking.”
Sloane wiped her mascara-stained cheeks, her loyalty to Grant evaporating faster than morning mist.
“He planned the whole thing! He talked about staging an accidental overdose if the corporate takeover failed!” she confessed.
The audio recorder sitting on the table captured every treasonous word, sealing Grant’s fate permanently.
