Chapter 10 - Marcus Arrested by Federal Marshals Before Elite Guests
The federal marshals hoisted Victoria back to her feet, dragging her alongside a defeated Marcus toward the vans.
Outside the grand hotel, a dozen news vans and camera crews flashed blinding lights into the night air.
Reporters shouted overlapping questions as Marcus was shoved into the back of a black prisoner transport van.
“Mr. Sterling! Is it true you tried to steal forty million dollars from the Caruso family?” a reporter yelled.
Marcus kept his head down, hiding his handcuffed wrists beneath his torn wool suit jacket.
The heavy steel doors slammed shut with a definitive thud that echoed loudly down the Manhattan street.
Within hours, his name was scrubbed from the building directory of Caruso Industries downtown.
He went from being an untouchable corporate elite to inmate number 94812 in federal holding.
