Chapter 10 - THE TRUTH OF THE DEPLOYMENT
"Where was she,"
Caleb asked detective,
"is she locked,"
"up in cell,"
"right now safe?"
"Yes she is,"
the officer nodded,
"she was hiding,"
"in dirty alley,"
"looking like mess,"
"offered no fight."
"But we found,"
"something else clear,"
"in her bag,"
"letters and papers,"
"about your deployment."
Caleb frowned deeply,
"what do you,"
"mean by that,"
"officer explain more."
The detective sighed,
handing him paper,
"she paid off,"
"a corrupt clerk,"
"in military office,"
"to send you,"
"far away now."
"She wanted you,"
"out of country,"
"so she could,"
"attack your wife,"
"without your protection."
Caleb's eyes widened,
with absolute shock,
his hands shaking,
reading the letters,
confirming the crime.
Vanessa had planned,
this for months,
manipulating his career,
to isolate Olivia,
and steal fund.
"This is treason,"
Caleb whispered low,
"she interfered with,"
"military orders clear,"
"for personal malice."
"Yes it is,"
the detective said,
"the federal government,"
"is taking over,"
"the case now."
"She faces twenty,"
"years in prison,"
"no bail allowed,"
"for federal crimes,"
"against an officer."
Olivia started weeping,
shocked by depth,
of Vanessa's evil,
unable to believe,
her own family,
would do this.
Caleb hugged her,
furious beyond words,
vowing to see,
his sister rot,
in dark cell.
"She crossed line,"
he spat out,
"messing with army,"
"and my family,"
"she is dead."
The news broke,
on the internet,
the deployment conspiracy,
exposed to world,
shocking the public.
The Vance name,
sank even lower,
associated with treason,
and wicked plots,
against brave soldier.
Grandfather Arthur called,
his voice trembling,
"I am sorry,"
"Caleb my boy,"
"I raised monster."
"I will hand,"
"the entire company,"
"over to you,"
"and sweet Olivia,"
"when she heals."
"You are the,"
"only true Vance,"
"left in bloodline,"
"worthy of name,"
"and the honor."
Caleb looked at,
his beautiful wife,
nodding his head,
"we accept grandad,"
"we will rebuild,"
"the whole thing,"
"with total honesty."
The old empire,
was officially dead,
and a new,
May you like
legacy was rising,
from the ashes.
