Chapter 12 - Chase Plots Vengeance With Shady Local Criminal Fixers
Across town in a dimly lit downtown bar, Chase slammed a glass of whiskey down onto the sticky wooden counter.
His face was twisted in absolute hatred as he recounted the Thanksgiving humiliation to his shady business associates.
“She humiliated me in front of my entire family, and my dad took her side like a whipped dog,” Chase growled.
“So what do you want us to do about it, Chase? She’s a high-ranking military officer,” a scarred fixer named Rico noted.
“I want her discredited. I want her stripped of her rank and kicked out of the Navy in disgrace,” Chase hissed.
“That’s federal territory, man. Messing with active-duty military brings down the full weight of NCIS on our heads,” Rico warned.
“I don't care! I’ll pay you ten thousand dollars in cash if you find a way to ruin her security clearance,” Chase insisted.
Rico rubbed his chin thoughtfully, weighing the risk against the fat payout offered by the spoiled, vindictive brother-in-law.
“Fine. We’ll dig into her past financial records and see if we can plant a fake audit trail,” Rico agreed quietly.
