Chapter 7 - The Arrest
Miles away, the dark, rainy South Port was a chaotic scene of blinding red and blue police lights.
Graham’s massive armored SUV violently swerved through the shipping yard gates. Before the vehicle could even fully stop, it was completely surrounded by a dozen heavily armed federal agents.
"What is the meaning of this?!" Graham shrieked like a feral banshee, throwing his door open and stepping out into the freezing rain. "I am the CEO of this port! You have no jurisdiction here!"
"Graham Vance," the lead agent barked, flashing a federal badge. "We just opened container 404. We found ten million dollars in undeclared offshore assets and illegal contraband."
Graham froze. The blood completely drained from his face, leaving him looking like a terrified ghost. Only two people in the world had the encryption keys to container 404. Him, and his wife.
The cinematic realization crashed over him with the force of a nuclear bomb. His quiet, obedient wife had completely annihilated his billion-dollar empire from a hospital wheelchair.
"You are under arrest for massive corporate fraud and federal tax evasion," the agent announced coldly.
"No! Please! Let me call my lawyer!" Graham wailed pathetically, thrashing and kicking wildly as the massive agents grabbed his expensive overcoat, violently hauling him into the mud.
