“You invited her here?”
“Yes.”
Rachel stepped into the room.
“I didn’t come to make accusations. I came because Vanessa deserves to understand what happened to her money.”
She placed a document on the table.
It showed a transfer of $60,000 from an account associated with my inheritance into an account connected to New Beginnings Holdings. The remaining $26,000 had come from savings shared by Sean and me, according to the preliminary information Rachel had seen.
Alex picked up the page.
“New Beginnings Holdings,” he repeated. “Nancy, isn’t that the company you told me you were planning to create for a coastal rental business?”
Nancy’s lips parted, but no words came out.
Sean stepped toward Rachel.
“You have no right to bring company information into my house.”
Rachel held her ground.
“I haven’t asked anyone to accept anything without verification. The bank can confirm the transactions. The question is why the money was moved and whether Vanessa authorized it.”
