Daniel read the document again.
It transferred control of several Carter assets into a new company.
Victoria was listed as the managing director.
Daniel looked at Marcus.
How much money are we talking about?
Marcus answered quietly.
Nearly twenty million dollars.
Daniel stared at Victoria.
She began shaking her head.
Daniel, listen.
He held up the document.
You used my signature.
Victoria lowered her voice.
I was going to tell you.
When?
She had no answer.
Then Marcus revealed something worse.
This was not the first document.
Daniel turned toward him.
What do you mean?
Marcus explained that several smaller transfers had already been made over the previous six months.
He had started investigating them that morning.
Victoria looked furious.
You had no right.
Marcus answered.
They were Daniel’s accounts.
Daniel looked down at Lily.
His daughter was still holding tightly onto his jacket.
Then he looked back at Victoria.
One dropped envelope had just exposed months of secrets.
