Chapter 9 - Victor Took Me at Gunpoint and Forced Me to Open the Whitmore VaultVictor's men surrounded the house.
I told Emma to hide.
She refused.
“I'm not leaving you.”
“You have to.”
She shook her head.
“You saved my family.”
I stared at her.
“No.”
“You saved mine.”
Then the door exploded.
Victor entered.
He pointed his gun at me.
“Vault.”
I raised my hands.
“Take me.”
He smiled.
“That was always the plan.”
He dragged me to the ranch.
The vault was beneath the main house.
Victor forced my hand onto the biometric scanner.
The door opened.
Inside were documents.
Gold.
Cash.
And the final trust records.
Victor grabbed the files.
Then he saw the screen.
TRANSFER INITIATED.
He froze.
“What did you do?”
I smiled.
“Nothing.”
He turned toward me.
The system had recognized his attempt to access the trust as fraud.
Every document was automatically transmitted to federal investigators.
Victor screamed.
He raised his gun.
Then Emma appeared.
“Stop!”
Victor turned.
I moved.
The gun fired.
I tackled him.
We crashed against the floor.
Ethan and the police stormed inside.
Victor was arrested.
But before they took him away, he whispered:
“You still haven't found him.”
“Who?”
May you like
He smiled.
“Your father.”
