Chapter 42: The Chairman's Game
The cabin fell into absolute silence.
No one moved.
No one spoke.
No one even seemed capable of breathing.
The name remained on the page.
Alexander Vale.
Amelia stared at it.
Then at the man standing beside her.
Then back at the document.
Her mind refused to accept what her eyes were seeing.
"No."
The word escaped before she could stop it.
Alexander looked equally stunned.
For the first time since she had met him, his composure was gone.
Completely gone.
Rachel slowly shook her head.
"This has to be fake."
Charles looked sick.
Victor looked frightened.
Actually frightened.
And that terrified Amelia more than anything else.
Alexander took the file from Charles.
His eyes scanned every page.
Every record.
Every signature.
Every date.
