Chapter 13 - The Masterful Checkmate
The heavy, tense silence in the massive Senate chamber was entirely absolute as Vance’s lead political aide hurriedly handed him a sleek digital tablet.
Senator Vance violently snatched the expensive device, his arrogant, deeply confident expression rapidly morphing into sheer, undeniable terror.
Elena had ruthlessly authorized the complete, highly targeted release of heavily classified offshore banking records directly linking Vance to the Obsidian Group.
"It highly appears, Senator, that your massive, highly aggressive political campaign was heavily funded by the exact same corrupt European cartel I recently destroyed," Elena stated clearly.

"My elite, highly aggressive legal team has already officially forwarded all of this highly damning evidence directly to the active Department of Justice," she announced.
