Two days later, a new scandal hit social media: “EXCLUSIVE: Phoenix created shell accounts in its founding year. Were funds funneled off-books?” It looked real. Too real. What the world didn’t know? Camellia had released it herself. They took a handful of abandoned test accounts—never linked to money, created for security drills—and packaged them as if they were shady. Ethan’s bots jumped on it.

I watched the group that came in, Detective Jones was also in the group then there were few politicians that I usually saw on TV and a guy who distributed his books through our bookstore. I continued capturing pictures then I crawled back to the bookstore without being noticed through the secret passage way. I returned the books to their original state and rushed back to my office, I sat down and scrolled through the pictures that I captured then realized that the bookstore was really a money laundering scheme. This time I understood why Abigail reacted how she reacted when I asked her about the previous manager of the bookstore.

Not until I heard my name. “—Walter Blackwood and Kaia Whitmore—under scrutiny in what could be one of the most high-profile financial scandals of the last decade.

I didn’t even flinch.

“And in turn, the publisher must trust the author. You all remember the scandal in 2006 with James Frey’s and his fake memoir, A Million Little Pieces?

“May I come in?” “No.” The answer came instantly. Elena nodded, almost approvingly. “Good. You shouldn’t trust me.” Sheila folded her arms across her chest. “Start talking.” Elena exhaled softly, shifting her weight as she leaned against the hallway wall. “Three years ago, Carter orchestrated a scandal involving Atticus,” she began. “A fabricated doping allegation. False, obviously. But convincing enough to nearly end his career.” Sheila’s heart skipped. “I’ve never heard about that.”

“Don’t open the app yet.” Ruby’s stomach dropped. “Why?” Zara appeared on her other side, jaw clenched. “Because it’s bad.” That was all it took. Ruby pulled out her phone. The gossip app refreshed on instinct. NEW POST — VERIFIED SOURCE Kingston Family Scandal Brewing? Insider Claims Trouble at St. Celeste. Her heart thudded painfully. She tapped.

The telecommunications company made 4.2 billion fraudulent entries to inflate revenue through fake unallocated revenue accounts—all in a scheme to make the company appear to be doing better than it truly was.

It would be the ultimate betrayal. "Time to escalate," I whispered. I uploaded the audio file and a grainy photo of Kai meeting the bookie.

Bella Pov A package arrived at my mom's house addressed to me from a publishing company. I opened it and found a manuscript with a cover letter.
