Chapter 16 - THE LIONESS'S HUNT"YOU TOUCHED MY CHILDREN!" Audrey’s Cold-Blooded Revenge on Julian Hayes!
Thirty minutes later, Julian sat inside his luxury penthouse suite, nervously pacing as he waited for his mercenaries to call. His bags were packed, and a private jet was waiting at JFK airport to fly him to a non-extradition country.
His phone rang. He snatched it up. "Is it done? Do you have the twins?"
"No, Julian. They don't," my voice echoed from his sound system speakers.
Julian froze. "What?!"
The glass patio doors of his penthouse shattered inward as tactical strike teams rappelled down from overhead helicopters. Smoke grenades detonated in the living room, filling the air with blinding white fog.
Julian coughed hysterically, stumbling backward as boots slammed onto his hardwood floors.
Through the dense smoke, I walked into the room, wearing high tactical boots and a black trench coat. I looked like an avenging angel of wrath.
"You targeted my babies, Julian," I said, my voice echoing over the thunder of the helicopter blades outside. "You tried to poison my grandfather. You tried to ruin my life through Dominic."
I pulled a tablet from my coat and tapped the screen.
"In the last fifteen minutes, Vance Capital executed a hostile short-squeeze on Hayes Biotech," I informed him, watching his face turn to sheer terror. "Your stock has plunged to zero. Your bank accounts in Zurich have been frozen by international law enforcement. Your private jet pilot has been arrested. You are broke, Julian. Completely and utterly ruined."
Federal agents marched through the smoke, slapping heavy steel handcuffs onto Julian’s wrists.

"You can't do this to me!" Julian screamed, struggling against the agents. "I'm a Hayes! I have power!"
"You have thirty years in a federal penitentiary," I replied coldly. "Say hello to Dominic when you get there."
