And then—
His cursor stops.
Her family accounts.
Her inheritance holdings.
The stocks, the buildings she technically owns on paper, the old trust funds she never touches—
One account is open.
And the number hits him like blunt force:
A massive withdrawal.
Not pocket money.
Not something she could pretend she "forgot."
A chunk.
Large enough to buy a flight.
Large enough to relocate.
Large enough to disappear with help.
His jaw clenches so hard the muscles jump.
He clicks deeper into the statement.
The timestamp stares back at him:
3:41 AM — last night.
Last night.
Right before she taunted him.
Right before she told him he didn't know everything.
Right before she said something could "happen" to her.
His chest goes still.
Completely still.
Then very, very slowly—
He leans back in his chair.
His face blank.
Emotionless.
Dead calm.
The kind of calm that comes seconds before a killing blow.
A breath leaves him — sharp, silent, controlled.
"...You sneaky little shit."
Not loud.
Not angry.
Not shocked.
Just... impressed.
And furious.
And terrified.
He checks further.
The transfer wasn't random.
It wasn't to a bank.
Not a friend.
Not a relative.
It was moved to a holding account under a fake alias.
One that required planning.
Connections.
Somebody helping her.
Somebody she trusted more than him.
His hand curls into a fist on the desk.
The bones crack.
He stares at the screen, eyes dark and unreadable, and whispers:
"So that's your card."
He presses his fingers to his temple, staring at the transaction list like it might rearrange itself if he glared hard enough.
Seven years of watching her habits.
Seven years of reading every breath.
Seven years of knowing when she buys a coffee thirty seconds before she even lies about it.
And she moved that much money?
Without him sensing it?
His heart thumps once in his chest, hard.
He shuts the laptop.
Then opens it again immediately—because panic doesn't let him stop.
He checks timestamps.
Routing numbers.
Patterns.
