Chapter 14 - Leo Swears Vengeance For His Daughter's Suffering
Stepping back into the grand foyer of the Aspen estate, Leo placed Lily’s favorite toys on the living room rug.
Special Agent Vance was waiting by the mahogany column, holding an updated federal arrest warrant for Marcus Sterling.
“We raided Marcus’s corporate office downtown an hour ago, Mr. Vance; he’s currently in federal custody,” Agent Vance reported.
“Did he confess to his role in the embezzlement scheme?” Leo asked, walking over with his briefcase in hand.
“Instantly. He blamed everything on Victoria, claiming she seduced him into participating with promises of untaxed millions,” the agent said.
Leo let out a cold, humorless laugh, shaking his head at the absolute cowardice of his former business partner.
“They thought they could outsmart the legal system and walk away with my grandfather’s entire industrial legacy,” Leo stated.
“Their trial will be prosecuted at the federal level, ensuring maximum sentences without parole,” Agent Vance assured him.
Leo looked up at the U.S. flag standing proudly in the corner, feeling a renewed sense of faith in institutional justice.
