I walked away from the stench of his fear and his stubbornness, the clock now ticking in my mind. Later, in the silent privacy of my car, I made another call. It was answered on the first ring. ‘Good afternoon, Mr Hastings.’ ‘I have a task that requires a delicate touch.’ ‘Go ahead.’ ‘An individual at Belmarsh requires a persuasive argument. Name is Toby Saltzman. He needs to understand that his continued silence is detrimental to his health. Make it non-lethal, but convincing. Can you arrange a conversation?’ There was no hesitation. ‘It can be done. Timeframe?’

Victor did not look back at her. The criminal fraud referral was filed before the afternoon session began. I sat in the gallery and watched Victor Hale, ex-MI6 and CEO of Halo Systems, the man who had spent eighteen months trying to dismantle everything I built, sit at his table while his attorney leaned over and spoke quietly into his ear, and whatever the attorney said did not make Victor's expression change at all. He just sat there. Marcus came and sat beside me during the break. "It's done," he said. "I know," I said.

They recognize me immediately, stepping aside without a word. The VIP section is dimmer, and intimate. Leather couches curve around low tables where deals are made and threats are delivered with the same casual indifference. Hank sits in the center booth, flanked by two men I recognize—Dmitri, his enforcer, and Santos, his accountant. They are all rogues living among the humans. "Shawn!" Hank spreads his arms wide, gold chains glinting at his neck. "Finally. We were starting to think you'd forgotten about us."

"Commissioner? You have something for me?" "I do. Is it still the case that you are out of contact with Klempner?" Hickman's face falls. "I'm afraid so." "Given what I have learned, that's not reassuring." Will fans a handful of prints across the table, the photos Klempner asked to be ID'd. "I believe I have the information your employer requested. All the men in the photos you provided except two are known criminals. However..." He stabs a finger down on one image. "... This individual is one Jose Santos..."

" The courtroom erupted. Felix's legs gave out, and he dropped to his knees in the dock. Christine had paid a hacker a hefty fee to recover this footage from the property management's deleted backups. This wasn't an accident. It was a premeditated murder. Later, the presiding judge read the verdict. "The defendant, Hank Zeller, is guilty of fraud, embezzlement, and money laundering. He is sentenced to 15 years in prison. All of his personal assets are to be confiscated." The judge continued, "The defendant, Felix Carter, is found guilty of murder, fraud, and embezzlement. He is sentenced to death, with all civil rights permanently revoked."

They couldn't be with Borris every day to take care of him, so they had entrusted a capable assistant to do the job there. As such, Marco deduced that Toby had probably come here today after getting wind of his location from others. The Jacobses were in the entertainment industry, after all. Marco knew how people involved in entertainment liked to play dirty. He felt it was somewhat disdainful. As such, he didn't have a favorable opinion of the Jacobses. After hearing Marco's response, Tob smiled and replied, "That's right, Mr. Hanker. You saw right through me. I came here to talk to you about the land in the western suburbs of Henkel."

“That is what happens to people who cross Killian Wolfe. They disappear from their industries.” “You are paranoid.” “Am I? What about David Henley? Vivian Marquez? Everyone who's ever opposed him ends up destroyed or in prison.” “Because they were criminals who attacked us first.” “Were they? Or were they people who discovered things Killian couldn't let become public?” I reached the kitchen island, felt the cold marble against my back. “You're sick, Tobias. You need help.” “I need you to listen.” He moved closer, close enough that I could see the broken capillaries in his eyes. “I have been watching him, researching his business practices, following his patterns. He is not the man you think

“You being accused somehow make sense because you might have had your criminal impulse that day—” I stopped in my tracks which made him do too. I faced him and spoke in a firm manner, “Would you please refrain from speaking any symptoms related to my condition? It makes me uncomfortable. My crime-solving partner thinks that I am as evil as a criminal mastermind? Outrageous,” and then, I turned my back at him and continued my trip out of the JHB.

We had to recount every detail, every suspicion, every piece of evidence we'd gathered over the past few months. The lead investigator, Francis Cook was a stoic, middle-aged man with a calm precision about him. He listened closely, taking careful notes in a notebook that looked nearly full already. "You have a strong case," he said at last, flipping through the files we'd presented. "The bank transfers, the witness statements, the sabotage reports… it all forms a very clear pattern." Joseph had also referred us to a criminal lawyer, Henry Pembroke, an impeccably dressed man whose quiet confidence filled the room. When we first met, he laid out all the documents across his polished mahogany d
