Chapter 5 - The Uncle at the Head of the Table Anthony Blackwood had raised Victor after his father died.
He had taught him business.
Loyalty.
Power.
And one rule above all others:
Family never betrays family.
Anthony had also approved Serena's access to the Blackwood Foundation.
Victor confronted him at the family estate.
Anthony denied everything.
Until Victor placed the burned documents on the table.
Then Anthony stopped pretending.
“You were destroying this family long before Serena arrived.”
Victor stared at him.
“You helped kidnap my wife.”
“I protected the company.”
“You stole my son.”
“I protected your succession.”
Victor crossed the room.
Marco stopped him before violence could erase the evidence they needed.
Anthony smiled.
“That is your problem, Victor. You always believe rage makes you powerful.”
Victor stepped backward.
For once, he listened.
Then Anthony revealed why Isabella had been targeted.
She had discovered that millions from Blackwood charities were being redirected through shell organizations.
Serena helped Anthony hide the money.
But Serena eventually wanted something bigger.
Victor.
The marriage.
The trust.
The child.
Everything.
Before police could arrest Anthony, the lights died.
Glass shattered.
When emergency power returned, Anthony was gone.
And on the table was a single photograph.
