Chapter 12 - Reclaiming the Foundation

Three weeks after the wedding scandal, Maya and Adrian sat side-by-side in the headquarters of their educational foundation, surrounded by forensic accountants and legal teams.
Thanks to Maya's swift action on the night of the wedding, the court had issued an immediate asset freeze on the Sterling family accounts before the stolen money could be transferred out of the country.
The lead investigator placed a final legal document on the table.
"Mr. Vance, Miss Lin," the investigator announced with a smile. "We have successfully recovered 100% of the $1.8 million stolen from your foundation. The funds have been restored to your primary grant accounts."
Adrian let out a long breath he felt like he had been holding for months, covering his face with his hands.
Maya smiled warmly, placing a reassuring hand on his shoulder. "The kids are getting their schools built after all, Adrian."
