The ownership chain eventually led to a family trust.
Not mine.
Kristen’s.
Beneficiary:
Kristen Sutter.
Not Trevor.
Martin had discovered it only three weeks earlier.
“That explains the liability split.”
I said.
Daniel nodded.
“She planned to let Trevor sign the debts while she captured the controlling interests.”
My son had helped his wife build a trap for me.
His wife had built another trap under him.
Trevor was not innocent.
He was simply not as smart as the person he chose to commit fraud with.
Then we reached the six million.
Martin had authorized the transfer.
He did not deny it.
But he had also done something Kristen did not know.
At the moment the money moved into Northstar, Martin notified a senior compliance officer at the receiving institution that the transfer might be disputed.
He had previously worked with her on construction financing.
He did not tell her everything.
