Chapter 9 - Jaxon Learns About His Wife’s Hidden Financial Crimes

Agent Vance pulled a thick manila folder from his tactical vest, flipping open the first set of certified financial documents.
“Mr. Jaxon Thorne, you are also being detained for questioning regarding the laundering of stolen Sterling Global capital,” Vance stated.
Jaxon’s face turned the color of ash as he pointed frantically toward his wife with trembling fingers.
“I didn't know anything about stolen capital! She told me her startup inheritance funded our entire real estate portfolio!” Jaxon cried out.
“Your signature is stamped across three shell corporation property purchases in Palm Beach, Mr. Thorne ignorance is no legal defense,” Vance replied.
Federal agents moved in swiftly, clicking heavy steel handcuffs around Jaxon’s wrists with a harsh, metallic snap.
