"Will simply returning custody to Don Quixote be enough?" Elizabeth asked suddenly. "Are there any other options?"
"Yes," Laura, as always, did not disappoint. "Our family's trust company was recently conducting its year-end internal audit, and we discovered that a senior vice president named Robert Anderson has been engaging in serious misconduct. He embezzled approximately 4 million USD in company funds to cover his gambling debts from Atlantic City. Our legal department has already prepared to file charges, and he'll likely spend the rest of his life in Federal Prison."
What Laura didn't tell Elizabeth was that arrangements had already been made within the prison. Robert would most likely not live to see another Christmas in Federal Prison.
'Then again, Elizabeth has only just become an adult and hasn't been initiated into the family's business. There's no need for her to know certain things.'
