Chapter 13: The Forged Pages
Gerald moved before I did.
"Roxanne, go home," he said. "This is not your business."
"It's my money," Roxy said. "That makes it my business."
His lawyer took him by the elbow and said, very low, "Not one more word, Gerald."
Gerald pulled free and pointed at her across the long table.
"Remember what I told you in September."
"I remember every word," she said. "I've had weeks to think about them."
He looked at fifteen faces behind the glass, and none of them looked back kindly.
His lawyer steered him out through the open floor, and the board man scurried after.
Veronica stood and said, "Dex, take the floor to lunch. All of it."
Dex didn't argue, and the staff filed out behind him with their coats half on.
The door clicked, and Roxy and I were alone in a room full of afternoon light.
She set the leather bag on the table and took out a stack of pages.
They were bank statements and withdrawal slips, and every slip had a signature on the bottom line.
