Chapter 14 - THE FINAL BOARD MEETINGThe final confrontation took place in the same conference room where everything had begun.

The empty chair remained in the center.

Evelyn walked in alone.

Her father sat at the head of the table.

The board members surrounded him.

Marcus was brought in under guard.

Adrian stood behind Evelyn.

Lily watched from the hallway.

“You lose,” Evelyn's father said.

Evelyn smiled.

“No.”

She placed a small device on the table.

“You do.”

Every screen activated.

Thousands of confidential files appeared.

Names.

Payments.

Recordings.

Blackmail.

Evidence covering twenty years.

The entire meeting was being streamed live.

Her father stood.

“You wouldn't dare.”

Evelyn looked directly into the cameras.

“My name is Evelyn Carter.”

May you like

She paused.

“And I'm done being afraid.”
