Chapter 12 - The Corrupt Corporate Board Tries To Intervene Quickly

Midday brought an emergency meeting called by three senior board members who owed their positions to the Kensington family.
Arthur Sterling marched into my private office without knocking, looking furious as he slammed a folder onto my desk.
“Daniel, this family feud with Vanessa has gone far enough! You’re jeopardizing our multi-million-dollar merger!” Arthur yelled.
I leaned back in my executive leather chair, crossing my arms over my chest with a calm, dangerous expression.
“Arthur, your daughter is currently facing felony warrants for child abuse, witness intimidation, and fraud,” I said evenly.
“That’s a malicious smear campaign, and you know it! Drop the charges or we will strip you of your CEO status today!”

I reached into my desk drawer, pulling out a thick flash drive and tossing it across the polished mahogany table.
“That drive contains every wire transfer, offshore account, and blackmail memo linking you and Arthur to Vanessa’s scheme.”
