Chapter 9 - The Digital Blackmail

I stared at the glowing screen of the cell phone, completely amazed by the incredible data hidden on the microchip.
It contained the offshore bank account numbers, illegal wire transfers, and explicit blackmail material on every corrupt official in the city.
I quickly found the police commissioner's name and opened his highly classified, encrypted financial dossier.
I raised the phone high into the air, ensuring the corrupt commissioner could see the glowing screen clearly in the dark.
"I just initiated a massive data transfer that will completely empty your offshore accounts and send the evidence to the FBI," I yelled boldly.
The commissioner's smug, arrogant expression instantly crumbled into absolute, terrifying panic.
"You have exactly ten seconds to order your men to arrest David inside that building, or I hit confirm," I threatened with pure ice in my voice.
The commissioner frantically raised his radio and barked an immediate order for the SWAT team to storm the corporate skyscraper.
The heavily armed officers rushed past us, completely abandoning our arrest to focus on the billionaire criminal hiding inside.
I watched in immense satisfaction as David was dragged out of the building ten minutes later in heavy steel handcuffs.
He was screaming wildly, his face covered in dark blood, looking absolutely pathetic as his empire finally collapsed around him.
David saw me standing near the armored SUV and violently pulled away from the arresting officers to shout at me.
"You are a monster, Maya, and you have absolutely no idea what you have just unleashed on this world!" he screamed hysterically.
I simply smiled coldly, holding my beautiful, sleeping daughter safely against my chest without a single ounce of fear.
"I know exactly who I am, David, and I am the woman who finally brought you to your knees," I replied calmly.
David continued to scream as the police forcefully shoved him into the back of a heavily armored transport vehicle.
Before the doors slammed shut, David begged me hysterically not to open the final DNA envelope Luka had dropped during the fight.

I looked down at the muddy pavement and saw a sealed, white medical envelope resting near my feet.
Luka leaned heavily against the SUV, completely exhausted, and told me that it was finally time for the absolute truth.
