Chapter 9 - The Truth Revealed
"We tried to deliver his medals. We tried to bring Titan home to you a year ago when he finished his medical rehabilitation," the General continued, his cold, furious eyes slowly turning back to lock onto the trembling, sweating man in the black tuxedo.
The wealthy guests audibly gasped, the horrific reality of the situation completely washing over the crowd.
"But your uncle intercepted every single letter," the General stated, dropping the massive, devastating truth like a tactical explosive into the middle of the elegant gala. "He forged documents to claim you had been relocated. He completely hid the truth of your father's heroism because he didn't want the military auditing the massive survivor benefits and trust funds he has been illegally, systematically draining into his own private political accounts for the past two years."

"It's a lie! It's a misunderstanding! I was protecting her!" Arthur shrieked hysterically, desperately trying to salvage his ruined life.
