Before Marcus could turn and flee back into the elevator, the heavy glass doors of the terrace slid open.
Three federal agents in tactical gear rappelled smoothly down from the upper roof deck onto the penthouse balcony.
Marcus spun around in horror, finding his escape completely cut off by armed law enforcement officers.

They stepped forward, grabbing Marcus by his expensive suit jacket and slamming steel handcuffs onto his wrists.
Marcus cast a venomous glare toward Julian, who stood tall and unyielding beside his daughter.
