Chapter 13 - Retaliation in the Night
At two o'clock in the morning, Marcus stood by the window of his high-rise penthouse in downtown Chicago.
Chloe was sleeping safely in an interior panic room protected by reinforced steel doors and biometric locks.

They carried suppressed submachine guns, moving in a practiced tactical formation across the dark floor.
Their objective was crystal clear: eliminate Marcus Vance and recover Martha's phone with the video footage.
A cold smile touched Marcus's lips as he stepped out from the shadows into the moonlight.
They thought they were attacking a soft, wealthy CEO.
