“The red folders contain the names of the main people involved in the fraud. The ringleaders. The ones who devised the scheme, enabled it, and profited from it. Each one is identified by name and position, along with their bank accounts and the amounts they embezzled.”Claudia pushed the yellow folders forward.“These are the front men. They know parts of the operation and carried out orders, but they don’t understand its full scope. They serve as cover and protection for those at the top.”Finally, she rested her hand on the black folder.“This one… contains the heart of the entire operation. The true mastermind behind the scheme. The name may surprise you, Augusto, but every piece of evidence points to him as the person responsible.”Augusto exchanged a quick glance with Eloise, who held her breath.“Inside, you’ll find screenshots, audio recordings, access logs from the company’s internal systems, bank statements, and most importantly, a complete timeline showing how the losses beg

Augusto had sent personalized emails to the main people involved in the company. The senior executives—the marketing directors, the vice president, and the executive assistant to the president of the Rio branch—had all received urgent summonses to an extraordinary meeting. Each had been given a different reason: financial adjustments, an internal audit, or a review of company targets.Eloise had also drafted and sent messages to four lower-level employees—the so-called “front men” identified in the investigation: the branch receptionist, an IT technician, a marketing assistant, and the head of Human Resources. Each of them had been given a convincing reason to attend the meeting at the same time.At exactly seven o’clock, Eloise was already dressed in a navy-blue tailored suit, her makeup flawless and her hair elegantly pinned back. She walked downstairs with professionalism written across her face and found Augusto in the kitchen, silently drinking his coffee.“Good morning, Mr. Mont

The silence was broken by Claudia, who placed the tablet on the table and connected it to the screen on the wall. An image appeared: a spreadsheet filled with staggering figures, dates, names, and coded bank transactions. “Let’s get straight to the point,” she said in a tone that allowed no interruptions. “What you’re about to see are official records. Every piece of data has been audited and cross-referenced with bank statements, system logs, recorded conversations, internal emails, and suspicious financial transactions.” Henrique, the marketing director, frowned. “Is this some kind of joke? What kind of meeting is this?” “One that’s going to change your lives,” Augusto replied without altering his tone. Claudia moved to the next slide. Audio began playing through the speakers. “…it has to go through the fake consulting contract, understand? The invoice has already been issued. Luciana will sign the rest tomorrow.” It was Gabriel’s voice. Clear. Unmistakable. Gabriel, wh

As though the day itself had anticipated the outcome, heavy rain poured outside when Eloise and Augusto reached the company’s main lobby. Thunder rumbled beneath the relentless flashes of the reporters’ cameras as they crowded around the building’s entrance. The scandal had broken, and the media had no intention of missing a single second of the spectacle. “Be careful, please!” a security guard shouted as he tried to restrain the crowd. “Stand back!” Augusto remained steady, keeping one arm slightly in front of Eloise and shielding her with his body as they crossed the lobby. Her heart was still racing. The gun pressed against her. The scent of fear. The screams. The unbearable tension of those few moments. The memories continued to replay in her mind as though it had all happened only seconds ago. Before leaving, Augusto turned to Vinícius and extended his hand. “Thank you. I owe you another one.” The police chief shook his hand firmly and gave him a faint smile. “Maybe I’

The tension had eased, but Eloise’s body hadn’t realized it yet. Fear continued coursing through her veins like a slow poison she couldn’t ignore.Images of what had happened returned without warning.Gabriel’s arm locked around her neck.The cold metal of the gun pressed against her temple.Her ragged breathing.The panic screaming inside her mind while she desperately tried to remain calm.And then…The moment it was finally over.The moment Augusto pulled her against him with such force, as though he needed to feel that she was alive before he could believe it.His warmth.His scent.The strength of his embrace.For the first time in a very long time, she had felt completely safe.But… what was happening?Why did he seem so worried about her?Eloise shifted on the sofa, the mug of hot chocolate still cradled between her hands, and began watching him.He sat at the table with impeccable posture, his voice firm as he led the meeting, giving instructions to Claudia, César, Thiago, and
