Chapter 14 - Sophia Plots Revenge With An Outside Corporate Syndicate
Across town in a sleazy Manhattan motel room, Sophia paced the worn carpet while clutching a burner smartphone.
She dialed an encrypted international number connected to Viktor, an operative for the Zurich financial cartel.
“The family security codes are locked down, but I can get you the master server bypass if you fund my escape to Europe,” Sophia lied.
“You failed to secure the estate, Sophia. The cartel does not reward incompetence; we eliminate liabilities,” a cold voice replied.
Sophia’s breath caught in her throat as she heard the unmistakable click of a suppressed firearm over the speaker.
“Wait! I still have leverage! I know where the family keeps their physical vault keys!” she shrieked desperately.

“Meet me at the warehouse on Pier 42 in Brooklyn tonight with the keys, or consider yourself terminated,” Viktor ordered.
The line went dead, leaving Sophia stranded in a nightmare of her own making, hunted by the very syndicate she served.
