And a man who thought he could walk away before anyone understood what he had done.
“Daniel,” I said, “are you saying Adrian intended to use Sophie to conceal the money?”
“I’m saying that’s what the documents suggest. The investigators need to establish the details.”
“Then tell them everything you know.”
“I will.”
He paused.
“But there’s one more thing.”
My stomach tightened.
“What?”
“Richard has been telling people that you have the original records. He’s convinced that you kept a copy of everything.”
“I do have documents, but they’ve been handled through my attorney.”
“That’s not what he believes.”
“Why does it matter?”
Daniel’s voice dropped.
“Because Adrian thinks the records can expose everyone involved. And Richard has been telling him that he can get them from you.”
The room seemed to tilt.
Richard had already lost the house as a place of control.
He had lost the ability to keep Vesna silent.
