"Have you booked the flight?"

Sarah looked up as Adrian entered the office.

"Lord Alistair is still working on the legal request."

Adrian placed a cup of tea beside her.

"We can travel as soon as we have permission to examine the records."

Sarah nodded.

"I don't want to waste another day."

He pulled out a chair.

"Daniel has been hiding for years. A few more hours won't change that."

"It changes something for me."

Adrian watched her.

Sarah lowered her eyes.

"I spent so much time believing he was

  • DRESSED IN REVENGE: THE BILLIONAIRE'S SUBSTITUTE BRIDE   Chapter 80: The Instruction Without a Name

    Sarah placed the unsigned instruction beside the other documents."Expand Elena Lin's authority to cover all succession matters. Approval has been obtained."She read the sentence again."Whoever wrote this knew exactly what they wanted."Adrian studied the page."But they didn't sign it.""That's what makes it dangerous. Peter processed the change because someone told him approval had already been obtained."Renard opened his tablet."Martin says the instruction was recovered from an old backup folder. It was not part of the official document.""Then how did it reach Peter?""That is what we're trying to establish."Sarah looked at Lord Alistair."Can we challenge the instruction?""Yes. An unsigned instruction cannot prove that Aria approved the expansion. We can use it to question the validity of the revised authorization.""Then prepare the challenge."Lord Alistair nodded."But I recommend we also request the original communication records. We need to know who sent the instructio

    Charles remained seated after Sarah finished speaking."I know I made a mistake," he said quietly. "But I did not give Elena permission to control your future."Sarah folded her arms."Then who did?""I don't know.""You keep saying that.""Because it's the truth."Sarah looked at him."You submitted my mother's original authorization. You received confirmation that it had been accepted. You never checked the final copy. Do you understand what that means?"Charles nodded slowly."It means I trusted a system I should have questioned.""It also means someone had an opportunity to change my mother's instructions."Charles lowered his head."I am sorry."Sarah looked away.She had heard those words many times. They did not repair the years she had lost or the trust he had broken."Lord Alistair will send you a formal request," she said. "I want every message and document you received when you submitted that authorization."Charles looked up."You think I may have kept something?""I think

  • DRESSED IN REVENGE: THE BILLIONAIRE'S SUBSTITUTE BRIDE   Chapter 78: The File That Opened the Door

    "Elena's file was used as a recovery contact?"Sarah placed her phone on the table.Renard nodded."Yes. The temporary administrator account used to renew the restriction on the declaration listed Elena's legacy succession file as its recovery contact."Adrian frowned."Can someone use that file without Elena knowing?""Yes. The file was created years ago. It contains old recovery details, but we don't know who accessed it."Sarah looked at the report again."Then I want to know when the recovery contact was added."Renard opened his tablet."Martin is checking the old system. He believes the recovery record may have been created when Elena's expanded authority was entered."Sarah's expression hardened."That was the same change Aria never approved.""Correct.""Then we're getting closer."Adrian gently touched her arm."Closer to the truth, perhaps. But we still need to separate what we know from what we suspect."Sarah nodded."I know. I'm not accusing Elena yet. I'm trying to find

    Sarah read Renard's report again."The same system was used to change my mother's authorization and restrict the declaration?""Yes," Renard replied. "Both requests passed through the old Laurent Legal records system."Adrian leaned forward."Does that mean the same person was responsible?""Not necessarily," Renard answered. "Several people had access to that system. But both requests used temporary administrator accounts with blank user fields."Sarah placed the report on the table."Then we need to know who created those accounts.""I've asked Martin Shaw to help us recover the old access logs.""Good. I want the original records, not another explanation from someone who claims they don't know."Adrian looked at her."We should also be careful. If someone has been hiding behind these accounts for years, they may still have access to the records."Sarah nodded."That's why we won't warn them before we know what we're looking for."The following morning, Martin joined them through a

    l"Without Charles?"Sarah read Martin Shaw's message again."Why would he insist on that?" Adrian asked.Renard shook his head."He didn't explain. He only said the evidence concerns the Declaration of Protection and the changes made to its custody record."Sarah placed her phone on the table."Then I'll meet him."Adrian looked at her."Are you comfortable going alone?""I won't be alone. You'll come with me. But Charles won't know about the meeting until we've heard what Martin has to say.""Agreed."Sarah turned to Renard."Tell Martin we'll be there."The following morning, Sarah and Adrian arrived at Martin Shaw's office.He was an older man with grey hair and a serious face. He stood when they entered."Miss Vance.""Mr. Shaw.""Thank you for coming."Sarah sat down."You said you had evidence about the declaration. I'd like to see it."Martin studied her for a moment."Before that, I need to ask you something. Have you spoken to Charles Laurent?""Yes.""And did he show you a c

    Sarah stared at the name on Renard's tablet.CHARLES LAURENT."Are you certain?" she asked.Renard nodded."The access record carries his private trustee authorization. It was used three days before the destruction request."Adrian folded his arms."Can someone else use his authorization?""Possibly," Renard replied. "But the record alone cannot tell us who used it."Sarah looked at him."Then find out.""I've already requested the access details. The trust says it needs Charles's permission to release the full record."Sarah let out a bitter laugh."Of course."Adrian stepped closer."We should speak to him."Sarah shook her head."Not until we know what we're asking. I won't accuse him based on a name in a computer record."She picked up her phone."Call him. Tell him I want to see him."Charles arrived the following morning.He looked at Sarah for a long moment before sitting down."I received your message."Sarah placed the printed access record on the table."Do you know what thi
