Chapter 16 - Eleanor Discovers The Ultimate Betrayal In Business Records
While waiting for updates at the hospital, Eleanor reviewed the secondary financial audit delivered by Arthur Sterling.
The pages detailed how Robert Vance had systematically drained the family shipping trust to fund his secret aviation ventures.
“He didn't just frame my father; he used our company assets to buy his way into the American aerospace cartel,” Eleanor realized.
Her phone buzzed sharply with an encrypted alert from the corporate cyber-security division at downtown headquarters.
“Warning: An unauthorized wire transfer of fifty million dollars was just initiated from the primary trust account,” the alert read.
Eleanor bolted upright, realizing that someone inside the corporate offices was still executing Robert Vance’s orders.
“Arthur, get security on the phone right now! Someone is trying to loot the remaining trust funds!” Eleanor ordered into her phone.
“I’m on it, Eleanor; I’m locking down the main server terminal from my office as we speak,” Arthur replied urgently.
