Chapter 8 - The Trust Fund Conspiracy
Doctor Sarah handed the small USB drive to Miller. "She told me this contains bank encryption keys," Sarah said. "She copied his master key before he struck her." Robert let out a strangled gasp of utter horror. His secret crypto wallets were fully accessible on drive. Without those master encryption keys, funds were frozen. With those keys, federal agents could seize everything. Detective Miller plugged the drive into his tablet. The screen flashed green, confirming full data access. "All three million dollars are locked by federal order." "The funds will be returned to Emma's account." Robert's entire financial scheme collapsed in five seconds. He had committed assault, attempted murder, and fraud. He lost every single dollar he tried to steal. He faced decades inside a maximum security federal prison. Robert lost his sanity, lunging forward at detective. "Give me that drive, you bastard!" Robert screamed. He tried to snatch tablet from Miller's hands. Officer Davis stepped in instantly, grabbing Robert's arm. Davis twisted Robert's arm behind his back hard. Robert groaned in pain, forced down onto knees. Cold steel handcuffs clicked shut around his wrists. "Robert Whitmore, you are under arrest!" Davis barked. "You are charged with attempted murder and felony fraud!" "You have the right to remain silent right now!" Robert thrashed against cuffs, screaming profanities at me. "You worthless piece of trash!" Robert roared hysterically. "Your mother would be ashamed of you today!" I walked up to Robert, looking down cold. "Mom is watching you go to prison, Robert." "And she is smiling down from heaven tonight." The police officers dragged Robert toward exit doors. His boots dragged uselessly across polished hospital floor. News cameras from local media channels arrived outside. Flashes lit up the dark night sky continuously. Robert covered his face with cuffed hands ashamed. The wealthy businessman was exposed on live television. I turned away from glass doors, walking inside. I pushed open the door to Emma's room.
