Chapter 12 - Seizing the Offshore Accounts
Agent Harris carried a thick black leather document briefcase.
He set the briefcase onto the bedside table quietly.
"Mr. Daniel Carter, congratulations on your newborn daughter."
"Thank you, Agent Harris," I replied, standing up.
"What is the status of the financial investigation?"
Agent Harris opened the black briefcase, pulling papers out.
"We executed federal search warrants on all offshore accounts."
"We recovered the full six hundred eighty-four thousand."
"And we discovered a secondary hidden account in Switzerland."
My brows pulled together into a deep, curious frown.
"A secondary account?" I asked, looking at papers.
"Yes, an account containing twelve million dollars cash."
"An account registered under your late father's name."
My mind raced through the terrifying financial implications.
My father passed away five years ago from illness.
He left our family business in my management hands.
I never knew he held twelve million in Switzerland.
"Who had access to that secondary account, Agent?"
"Your mother Margaret and brother Lucas," Agent Harris.
"They were preparing to transfer the twelve million tomorrow."
"They planned to drain the entire family fortune dry."
"Then fly to Panama to escape federal prosecution."
I let out a long, heavy breath of shock.
My mother and brother were not just petty thieves.
They were planning to bankrupt our entire corporate firm.
They wanted to leave Elena and me completely penniless.
Their hatred and greed were truly bottomless and evil.
"Are the funds fully frozen now, Agent Harris?"
"Every single penny is locked by federal court order."
"The twelve million will be transferred to your name."
"As the sole legal heir of the Carter estate."
I looked at my sleeping wife and newborn daughter.
Our financial future was secured beyond any doubt now.
