DIAMOND IN THE ROUGH Chapter 116: The Riviera Vector
Chapter 116: The Riviera VectorThe Gulfstreams engines were really loud as the plane took off from the runway at Brussels-Abelag. It was like a roar that just got louder and louder. The plane went up into the air fast and the sky was all rainy and stormy.There was no time to relax after what happened to Baron Vance in court. The people inside the plane were already. Working like they were in a war room. It was a tense and serious atmosphere.Julian was standing at the front of the conference table. He had taken off his suit jacket and his big frame was leaning against the table because the plane was going up steeply. His sleeves were rolled up. You could see the muscles in his arms. He looked really focused and serious, staring at the map of the Riviera on the screen.Elena was sitting under the lights typing away on her computer. She was really fast and precise like she knew what she was doing. The stone pendant around her neck was swinging back and forth as the plane went up."The
DIAMOND IN THE ROUGH Chapter 115: The Eviction Mandate
Chapter 115: The Eviction MandateThe room inside the grand maritime chamber of the Palais de Justice had changed. It was no longer quiet and calculating. Now it was a place of panic. The light coming through the stained-glass skylight was darker and longer casting shadows across the empty benches.Julian and Elena walked back down the aisle. They moved with the authority of people who were in charge. Julian had his coat over his arm. He was wearing a charcoal suit and his gray eyes were flat and hard. Elena walked beside him, her dark leather trench coat open a bit. Her charcoal blazer was sharp and professional. She had a band on her finger and a raw quartz pendant against her chest.Across the aisle Baron Hendrick Vance looked broken. He was slumped in his chair in his suit. His hair was out of place. His advisors were not typing on their tablets anymore. They sat with their heads down and their hands on the table. They were getting messages from Geneva and Zurich. The private corp
DIAMOND IN THE ROUGH Chapter 114: The Sub-Tier Perimeter
Chapter 114: The Sub-Tier PerimeterThe descent into the archives of the Palais de Justice felt like stepping back into a forgotten century of stone and iron. The stairs down from the marble of the public galleries led to raw damp limestone corridors. These corridors were lit by low-wattage security bulbs spaced apart. The bulbs hummed against the dampness underground.Julian moved down the flight of stone steps. He did so with the predatory ease of a hunter stalking prey into a cave. His large frame filled the corridor. The dark fabric of his cashmere overcoat brushed against the walls. His gray eyes were hard. Like ice. They seemed to be made of executive power.Elena was behind his shoulder. Her dark leather trench coat was zipped up tight against the chill of the sub-tier. She held a security mobile command unit. The unit's screen was dimmed to a clinical blue. This blue highlighted the angles of her face. Her right hand was steady over the console. Her unpolished silver band caug
DIAMOND IN THE ROUGH Chapter 113: The Two-Hour Fuse
Chapter 113: The Two-Hour FuseThe oak doors of the high-tier maritime chamber closed behind them with a loud thud. This shut out the noise of Baron Hendrick Vance's team. The grand gallery outside was empty. It had marble walls and high arched windows. The Brussels rain drummed steadily against the windows.Julian didn't slow down. His large hand was on Elena's back. He had a grip. His gray eyes were sharp. They swept the hallways like a hawk looking for prey."We don't wait in the galleries, " Julian said. His voice was deep. It brooked no argument. "The Baron is cornered. His cartel is watching their money disappear. He has two hours before the magistrate returns. He will use every second to try and find a weakness in our plan."Elena moved in step with Julian. Her dark leather trench coat was sharp against the marble walls. She had a security mobile command unit on her forearm. Her silver band glinted under the chandeliers. Her fingers worked the network loops."The Rotterdam blac
DIAMOND IN THE ROUGH Chapter 112: The Blackout Gambit
Chapter 112: The Blackout GambitThe tier maritime chamber of the Palais de Justice was a big room with dark polished mahogany and old brass fixtures. Above a large stained-glass skylight let in some gloomy Brussels rain making long distorted shafts of sepia-colored light that cut through the shadows. At the bench sat Magistrate Vivienne De Clercq, a woman with a sharp unreadable expression. She had been doing this job for decades dealing with Europe's volatile international trade disputes.Julian and Elena walked down the center aisle, their footsteps hitting the floor with a rhythmic unyielding authority. As they took their places at the defense table the air in the room seemed to contract under Julian's presence. He took off his cashmere overcoat and threw it over the back of his chair standing tall like a wall of dark charcoal wool and absolute lethal focus.Across the aisle Baron Hendrick Vance sat with his team. The haired banker looked calm, his fingers steepled as he nodded at
DIAMOND IN THE ROUGH Chapter 111: The Sovereign Threshold
Chapter 111: The Sovereign ThresholdThe stone corridors of the Palais de Justice were a dark and sweeping labyrinth. The towering marble arches swallowed the echoes of Julian's footsteps. The air inside was cold, damp and thick with the scent of wax and wet slate. This was a contrast to the high-tech aircraft they had been on just an hour before.Julian walked with deliberate steps. His massive frame cut an imposing silhouette against the sconces on the walls. His black cashmere overcoat was unbuttoned, showing his charcoal suit underneath. His gray eyes were flat and cold like a Chairman ready to take on anyone who got in his way.Elena moved beside him, her dark leather trench coat brushing against the stone floor. Her expression was a mask of detachment, her posture straight and unyielding. Her right hand was in her pocket, her fingers on the high-security console that held the master architecture of the asset shield. On her finger a simple silver band felt heavy and real. It was

Chapter 76: The Cracks in the High-RiseThe velvet box sat open on the glass coffee table. Its contents caught the light of the Manhattan penthouse. Inside was a 1932-cut diamond. It was unpolished, jagged and held a multi-billion-dollar secret.Elena stood a foot away. Her arms were crossed tightl

Chapter 74: The Permanent SlateThe air in the library was nice and calm in the afternoon. It smelled like clover and warm stone. Outside the windows the shadows of the pine trees were long and pointy on the mountain. This made a pattern on the floor.Elena sat at her table in the library. Her hand
