Chapter 11 - Federal Investigators Enter The Penthouse With Arrest Warrants
The glass doors of the boardroom swung open once again as three armed federal agents strode into the room.
The lead investigator flashed his gold shield, his eyes locking directly onto the weeping figure of Victoria Vance.
“Victoria Vance, you are under arrest for corporate fraud, identity theft, and attempted assassination,” the agent announced loudly.
The heavy steel handcuffs clicked sharply as they were violently ratcheted around Victoria’s manicured wrists.
“This is a conspiracy! My lawyers will dismantle your careers before sunset!” Victoria screamed as she was hauled away.
Not a single person in the boardroom offered her a sympathetic glance as she was dragged past the executive desks.
Samantha watched impassively through the glass as her cousin was led toward the private elevators in disgrace.
“Justice takes its time, but it never misses its target,” Jonathan remarked quietly, pouring a cup of black coffee.
“The cleanup of this company begins right now, Jonathan; we have a reputation to restore,” Samantha declared.
