"My office has been secretly auditing Whitman Construction for the last six months due to misappropriation of state funds," Elaine announced, her voice projecting perfectly for the live news cameras that were still rolling. "Marcus didn't just beat your husband for the Capitol contract. Marcus is the one who uncovered the structural flaws your husband tried to hide in the downtown hospital project." Richard took a step back, looking like he was going to vomit. Karen’s arrogant smirk completely collapsed, replaced by sheer, unadulterated terror.

"You called the police because your husband is facing twenty years in federal prison, and you thought destroying Marcus's reputation today would stop the indictment on Monday."

Two agents moved swiftly past the dumbfounded local cops, grabbing Richard and Karen.
