Leo didn’t answer.

Richard pointed to the window. Two men in dark suits were standing on the sidewalk below, looking up. “Those are my lawyers. And that unmarked van? Forensic accountants.

For six months, the arrangement continued. Leo bled Richard dry: $50k, $100k, $300k. Each time, Richard paid. Each time, Leo moved the money to a crypto wallet. He felt invincible. He stayed, pale and jittery, pretending everything was fine
