Chapter 7 - THE SIGNATURE AFTER DEATHEthan stared at the document.
The date was impossible.
His father had supposedly died three days before the signature.
“This proves he was alive.”
Marcus nodded.
“It proves more than that.”
“What?”
“Someone had your father sign something while he was incapacitated.”
Ethan's hands curled into fists.
“What did they take?”
Marcus read the document.
“Controlling interest in the company.”
Ethan went silent.
Then he understood.
Maria wasn't simply trying to kill his father.
She was trying to legally become the owner of everything before anyone realized he was still alive.
The plan had been designed in stages.
Illness.
Isolation.
Death declaration.
Funeral.
Burial.
Transfer of assets.
Permanent silence.
Except one thing went wrong.
Ethan opened the coffin.
Marcus looked at him.
“You saved him.”
Ethan shook his head.
“No.”
