The ballroom fell completely silent

“The forensic audit is complete.”

A collective gasp spread through the audience.

Now people weren’t merely curious.

They were alarmed.

Many of them were shareholders.

Investors.

Board members.

The next slide appeared.

A list of unauthorized transfers.

Private accounts.

Luxury purchases.

Shell companies.

The figures were staggering.

Several board members stood up.

One looked furious.

Another looked sick.
