The Inheritance of Gray Eyes and the Fall of the Vale Empire
Two agents led Salvatore Vale out into the cold.
He looked smaller than I remembered, his silver hair messy and his expensive wool coat draped loosely over his shoulders.
He did not look at the cameras.
“What about Richard and Camille?” I asked.
Isabella tapped the screen, switching the feed to a press conference outside the Hart Enterprises building downtown.
A spokesperson was reading a statement while police cars sat parked on the plaza behind them.
“The FBI seized their servers twenty minutes ago,” Isabella said.
“Camille was arrested at her penthouse trying to board a private flight,” she added.
I looked at Adrian, whose gray eyes were fixed on the tiny screen.
“They cannot recover from this,” Adrian said.
“The financial records I released show thirty years of joint money laundering between the Harts and my grandfather,” he said.
“The entire structure is going to collapse by morning,” Adrian added.
Noah let out a soft yawn and rested his forehead against my collarbone.
“We are safe,” I whispered into his hair, though my heart was still beating fast.
