Chapter 7 - Confronting the corrupt ex fiance inside an exclusive Manhattan club as private security forces execute a total corporate takeover tonight.
The following afternoon, Brandon sat in the exclusive lounge of the Manhattan Metropolitan Club, drinking scotch with three high-society associates.
He was desperately trying to secure a five-million-dollar private loan to save his family's firm from impending bankruptcy and federal liquidation.
The heavy double oak doors of the lounge flew open, and Luka Moretti walked in, flanked by four federal marshals and two corporate attorneys.
The high-society members froze, dropping their crystal glasses onto polished tables as the authority of the federal officers dominated the room.
"Brandon Miller, you are served with a federal subpoena regarding corporate extortion, bank fraud, and child abandonment," the attorney announced.
Brandon scrambled to his feet, knocking his armchair backward as his face flushed red with a mixture of embarrassment and rage.
"Luka! You have no right to do this! Maya is nobody! She signed away her rights when I left her at the hospital!" Brandon shrieked hysterically.
Luka stepped forward, his tall frame towering over Brandon as he pulled an official legal document from his double-breasted jacket pocket.

"Maya signed nothing, Brandon... but you signed your family's execution order the moment you put a price tag on her tears," Luka said ice-cold.
