I stopped breathing.
“I didn’t sign this.”
“I know.”
At the bottom was an electronic signature.
My name.
Not my handwriting.

Rachel continued.
“The application claims you have a pending inheritance in excess of fifteen million dollars.”
My mouth went dry.
Daniel knew.
“He knew about the money.”
“Yes.”
“But I never told him.”
“Then we need to figure out how.”
She scrolled further.
“There is also a representation that you intended to invest part of the inheritance in Lawson Strategic Solutions once the trust cleared.”
“I never said that.”
“I know.”
“How much?”
“Five million.”
I laughed.
I couldn’t help it.
The whole thing was so absurd.
“He threw me out because I was dead weight while telling lenders I was about to give him five million dollars?”
