The Prison-Made Queen novel Chapter 765

And why was Josiah completely kept in the dark about this?!

A chill crept up his spine. He immediately logged into the municipal property registration system.

After punching in the plot number, the results hit him like a physical blow, freezing the blood in his veins.

The land had been mortgaged a month and a half ago to a firm called "Apex Wealth Capital" for 180 million dollars. The registered mortgagee was Apex Wealth Capital, and the signature on the proxy line belonged to Fitch Sherwood.

"Apex Wealth Capital..." Josiah muttered, his fingers flying across the keyboard to pull up the corporate registry database.

The results loaded.

Apex Wealth Capital. Legal Representative: Fitch Sherwood (90% shareholder).

The truth detonated in his mind like a bomb.

Their family's utter financial ruin had been entirely orchestrated by Fitch. He had used their land, mortgaged it to his own shadow company, and siphoned out a massive fortune in cash from the Sloan Group.

And the original project manager who supposedly absconded with the initial funds? That was probably Fitch’s doing, too!

It all made sense now. Every missing piece fell into place.

Since the crisis began, Josiah had spent all his energy fighting off aggressive banks and panicked suppliers. Though he had kept a wary eye on Fitch, he had never found solid proof of foul play. He always suspected the Sherwoods were involved, but because the Sloan Group relied on them for so much, he couldn’t act without hard evidence.
