Chapter 11 - Discovering The Secret Alliance Between Celeste And My Enemies

The final entry in Ewan’s diary contained a printed email chain between Celeste and my uncle Marcus. They had conspired to liquidate Harrington Shipping and merge its assets with the West Side syndicate.
My uncle Marcus had provided the access codes to warehouse B while Celeste planted the incendiary devices. They had used Ewan as a scapegoat, planting his ring near the blast zone to make his death look like suicide or negligence.

The betrayal ran deeper than I had ever imagined, rotting the Harrington family tree from the inside out. Every dinner, every handshake, every family gathering over the past six years had been a monstrous theatrical lie.
I closed the diary slowly, feeling a cold, dead certainty settle over my soul. There would be no trials, no appeals, and no mercy for anyone who wore the Harrington or Vandermark name in this conspiracy.
