Chapter 29 - THE SEALED GENEVA BOX

Two days after their engagement, an armored vehicle bearing Swiss diplomatic plates arrived at the Vance estate in Greenwich.

Two armed guards delivered a heavy titanium case secured with complex electronic locks directly to Clara's private study.

The package was accompanied by a formal letter bearing the seal of the Swiss Federal Banking Authority in Geneva.

"Miss Vance, this vault key was released automatically upon your baby's six-month milestone per your mother's legal instructions," the courier stated politely.

Clara used her personal biometric scan to open the titanium case, revealing an ancient leather-bound ledger and an encrypted satellite phone.

As Marcus inspected the contents, the satellite phone suddenly began to ring with a low, rhythmic chime.

"Hello?" Clara spoke into the speaker, her heart beating fast.
