Chapter 5 - The Miami Cover-Up
Six days earlier, when Julian ignored Evelyn’s emergency calls during her hemorrhaging labor, he hadn't just been on a romantic vacation with Chloe.
Julian was the CEO of Vance Logistics, a multi-million-dollar maritime shipping firm. What the public didn't know was that eighty percent of the company’s capital belonged to an offshore trust established by Evelyn’s late father, Arthur Vance.
To bypass the trust's strict inheritance clauses—which mandated that Evelyn retain sole ownership of all family assets upon giving birth to a direct heir—Julian and Chloe had flown to a private bank in Miami to execute forged power-of-attorney documents.
Julian needed Evelyn to remain legally childless for just three more days so he could siphon forty million dollars out of the trust before the birth was officially registered with the state.
