Chapter 13 - EMILY Daniel couldn't move.
Emily walked toward him.
Older.
Scarred.
But alive.
He whispered her name.
She ran into his arms.
Daniel collapsed against her.
For twelve years, he had dreamed of holding his daughter.
Now the dream was real.
But Emily was different.
She had learned how to survive.
She told them Argent had imprisoned her after discovering she had found the ledger.
Claire had helped her escape.
Together, they had spent years dismantling Argent from the inside.
“But we need one final piece,” Emily said.
“The ledger.”
“Yes.”
Ethan looked at the money.
“The bills.”
Emily nodded.
“Every payment is coded.”
The money wasn't simply cash.
It was evidence.
Each bill carried a hidden number.
Together, the numbers formed the ledger's encryption key.
Daniel realized what had happened.
Ethan hadn't accidentally dropped the money.
Argent had forced him to scatter it.
They needed to recover every bill.
