Chapter 28

## Chapter 28: The Return

Two weeks later.

A private ambulance parked in front of the Whitmore gates.

Nathaniel walked out to receive it.

Margaret was wheeled into the main foyer by paramedics.

She still had to wear a brace, but her eyes had regained their usual arrogance.

When the main doors closed, the paramedics left.

Only mother and son remained.

"The police closed the file," Margaret said. "Due to lack of evidence."

She looked up at her son, a victorious smile blooming on her lips.

"You did very well, Nathaniel. I knew you would understand the problem."

Nathaniel stood there, his hands clasped behind his back.

He looked at his mother, but not the way a son looks at a mother.

He looked at her the way an administrator looks at an entity within his system.
