Chapter 16: Sealed
"Then I'll bring you paper," Nate said.
"Do it soon," the union man said. "Your uncle has his statement. He'll want his vote while it's warm."
He hung up without saying goodbye.
On Monday morning Nate sat in his grandfather's office on the twenty-second floor for the first time since the papers.
The desk was too big, and he still hadn't moved the old man's reading glasses off the blotter.
The lawyer sat across from him with the will contest open on her knees.
The board secretary sat by the window with her laptop, taking notes on what they would need for court.
At ten o'clock somebody knocked.
A tall man in a gray suit came in holding a thick manila envelope against his chest.
He was the bank's chief compliance officer, and in six years Nate had never seen him on twenty-two.
"Mr. Chairman," he said. "I'm sorry to interrupt."
"Come in."
The man laid the envelope on the desk in front of Nate.
It was sealed with red bank tape.
Across the front, in neat print, was a customer name and an account number.
