Chapter 8 - The Financial Audit
Detective Bennett brought a black forensic computer tablet inside house.
She set the device onto the dining room mahogany table.
"We accessed Jason's encrypted cloud drive an hour ago, Olivia."
I looked at the blue screen displaying financial transfer ledgers.
The files revealed three million dollars in unauthorized bank movements.
Jason had forged my legal signature on estate trust waivers.
He attempted to transfer my late mother's entire inheritance.
He routed the cash to shell bank accounts in Panama.
He planned to declare bankruptcy for our family firm next week.
He wanted to leave me dead while keeping the fortune.
Every single wire transfer bore his personal digital fingerprint log.
"The federal judge froze all his accounts twenty minutes ago."
Detective Bennett announced with a cold, satisfying, victorious smile.
"Every single dollar has been returned to your sole custody."
I let out a long, ragged, emotional breath of relief.
My late mother's legacy was fully protected from his greed.
Justice was finally delivered to the man who betrayed me.
I packed my personal belongings into a fresh travel bag.

I was ready to leave this house of horrors forever.
