Chapter 8 - Derek Realizes His Credit Cards And Accounts Failed
Back in downtown Manhattan, Derek stood in the center of the corporate lobby surrounded by federal agents.
“Mr. Derek Vance, you are required to accompany us for questioning regarding financial irregularities and domestic abuse,” an agent stated.
“This is an outrage! My family owns half the commercial real estate in this county!” Derek yelled hysterically.
He tried to pull his titanium credit card to call his private attorneys, but the card cracked in half as security seized it.
“Your family owns nothing anymore, Mr. Vance. Every asset has been seized under federal forfeiture laws,” the agent replied coldly.
Handcuffs clicked shut around Derek’s wrists with a harsh, metallic snap that echoed through the marble lobby.
