The results were disturbing.
Several transfers from the investment company had gone to entities controlled by Arthur. Some payments were described as consulting fees, others as short-term loans. At least one transaction appeared to have been supported by a document containing my disputed signature.
There were also emails suggesting that Daniel had known the company was experiencing serious cash-flow problems before he moved our savings.
But the most important discovery came from a message Daniel had sent to his father’s chief financial officer.
The email, dated several months before I discovered the guarantee, read:
Alex has not signed the revised documents. Dad wants the file completed before the next review. We need to figure out how to handle the signature issue before she sees the final version.
The message did not prove every allegation in the lawsuit. It did, however, contradict Daniel’s claim that he had only learned of the problem after I confronted him.
