Chapter 8 - The Cornered Rat
Marcus backed away from the conference table, his hand reaching secretly toward a panic button under the mahogany ledge. "You have no authority here, Rossi! This is a private corporate board! Guards!"
Four armed private security guards stepped out from the hallway, drawing their weapons toward Gabriel and Sadie.
Gabriel didn't even blink. He calmly raised his left hand, making a subtle finger gesture.
In an instant, four elite Moretti tactical operators smashed through the side glass partitions, disarming Marcus's guards before they could even align their sights. The corporate guards were pinned to the carpet in seconds.
Marcus fell to his knees beside his leather chair, trembling in sheer terror. "Sadie... please! I was like a brother to your father! Don't let him ruin me!"
Sadie walked over to Marcus, looking down at him with cold, unwavering resolve. "My father trusted you, Marcus. You repaid his loyalty by using a mercenary to trick me into a fake marriage and steal my inheritance."
She turned to Gabriel's legal counsel. "Hand all the ledger files to the State Prosecutor's office immediately."
