Chapter 3 - The Conspiracy Uncovered

"Sarah!" Mr. Duca barked, his voice echoing down the stone shaft as he stepped between the opening and the frightened young girl behind him. "What is the meaning of this?!"

The two security guards panicked upon seeing the master of the house standing at the top of the secret entrance. They drew their stun weapons, but before they could move, Mr. Duca pressed an emergency security button hidden beneath his desk lip.

Silent alarm lights flashed across the ceiling of the study as heavy steel shutters descended over the mansion's exterior windows.

Sarah rushed up the stone stairs, tears streaming down her pale, bruised face as she threw her arms around Mia and baby Lily. "I didn't steal anything, Mr. Duca! I swear on my life! I found Richard opening your corporate safe late at night!"

Sarah explained through breathless sobs how Richard had framed her for theft and forced her into the hidden panic chamber beneath the study at gunpoint to keep her from revealing his corporate espionage.
