Chapter 17 - Grandmother Desperately Tries To Escape Through The Back
Inside the maximum-security holding facility, Grandmother realized her golden years would be spent behind iron bars.
Desperate to avoid a decades-long prison sentence, she attempted to bribe a booking guard during a routine medical transfer.
“If you look the other way for two minutes, I can wire you five million dollars from an unseized account,” she whispered frantically.
The guard stared at her coldly, pressing a silent alarm button hidden beneath the booking counter.
“Bribery of a federal officer adds another ten years to your sentence, Mrs. Vance,” the guard stated without emotion.
Before she could take another step toward the exit doors, two armed tactical officers blocked the hallway corridor.
Her grand ambition of ruling the industrial world ended in a sterile municipal holding cell with concrete walls.
The illusion of eternal wealth and immunity shattered completely against the unyielding wall of federal justice.
She had sacrificed her family, her son's happiness, and her own soul for money that could not buy her freedom.
