Chapter 8 - The Platinum Arrest
A dozen federal agents and local police officers swarmed into the grand ballroom. Dragan’s attorneys had handed the insurance fraud evidence directly to the FBI that morning.
Dragan calmly handed the lead detective the encrypted drive containing the audio recordings and the financial documents detailing the massive corporate theft.
"Clarissa Merrill," the detective announced, reading the horrific evidence on the screen. "You are under arrest for massive insurance fraud, extortion, corporate espionage, and assault."
"Don't touch me!" Clarissa wailed hysterically as the officers forcefully hauled her to her feet.
They didn't let her change out of her flawless platinum evening gown. They violently slapped heavy steel handcuffs over her wrists, completely snagging the delicate fabric.
The officers dragged the screaming, thrashing socialite directly down the center aisle of the ballroom. She was paraded in handcuffs past every single elite, wealthy guest, investor, and magazine editor she had spent years manipulating.
The news cameras flashed wildly, capturing her complete and utter destruction.
By the time she reached the police cruiser, her corporate board had already voted to strip her of her CEO title. Her beauty empire was completely liquidated to pay back the fraudulent insurance claims. Her high-society reputation, her freedom, and her toxic life were permanently, entirely swallowed into violent ruin.
Dragan stood perfectly still, watching her disappear.
