"You have no proof!" Margaret shrieked wildly, violently thrashing her arms as her entire high-society identity completely shattered.
She aggressively pointed at the hard drive in Dominic’s hand.
"That drive is illegally obtained!" Margaret screamed, completely abandoning her sophisticated persona. "It won't hold up in federal court! I am a multi-millionaire! I will tie you up in civil litigation for decades! You will never see a dime of those shares!"

Vincent, the cowardly lawyer, desperately tried to crawl toward the exit on his hands and knees.
"Stop him," Dominic commanded flawlessly.
Two massive, heavily armed syndicate enforcers stepped completely out of the shadows, aggressively grabbing the weeping lawyer by the arms and violently hauling him back to the center of the ballroom.
"Mr. Moretti, please!" Vincent sobbed hysterically. "She made me do it! She paid me a million dollars to forge the dental records for the body in the fire! I'll testify against her!"
