Chapter 14 - THE LAST BETRAYALI met my father in a private detention room.
He had finally been arrested.
Not for the wedding.
For financial crimes.
He looked older.
Smaller.
“You know about Eleanor,” I said.
He nodded.
“Where is she?”
“Alive.”
“Where?”
He looked toward the camera.
“They are listening.”
“Who?”
He lowered his voice.
“The people who own the company.”
I stared at him.
“You were the CEO.”
“Not really.”
He explained that Hart Industries had been controlled by a secret group of investors.
They had manipulated the family for decades.
The money.
The trust.
Eleanor’s disappearance.
Everything had been connected.
“Who leads them?”
My father shook his head.
“I never saw her face.”
“Her?”
He nodded.
“A woman.”
“What is her name?”
He looked at me.
“Margaret Vale.”
I had heard the name.
Everyone had.
She was one of the most powerful investors in the country.
