Chapter 10 - Federal Investigators Uncover A Massive Corporate Embezzlement Scheme
Agent Miller and his forensic accounting team spent the next three hours downloading hard drives from the master security bunker.
The glowing blue screens reflected across the investigator's glasses as they reviewed years of altered wire transfers and fake invoices.
“Mr. Vance, your wife and Arthur Sterling didn't just steal jewelry; they systematically drained forty million dollars from your R&D accounts,” Miller said.
The Husband stood by the surveillance wall, watching live video feeds of the empty hallways and quiet gardens outside.
“I suppose blindness in marriage is a more dangerous liability than any corporate competitor in the boardroom,” the Husband murmured quietly.
“Greed makes people blind to risk, Mr. Vance, but your security system captured every single step of their conspiracy,” Miller noted.
The federal team packed their encrypted storage drives into metal cases, preparing to transport the physical evidence downtown.
Arthur Sterling was loaded into the back of a police transport van, his face hidden behind a dark leather jacket to avoid cameras.
