Chapter 5 - THE CONSULTING COMPANY
The trust itself did not pay Sofia personally.
That mattered.
But a company connected to her appeared in the emergency plan.
Haven Shield Consulting.
Protective relocation planning.
Secure housing logistics.
Family-risk coordination.
Sofia owned:
40%.
The other 60% belonged to two former federal security consultants.
The emergency vendor schedule estimated first-year costs of:
$1.7 million to $2.3 million
if Ethan were relocated.
Haven Shield could receive:
up to $640,000
in coordination and security-planning fees.
Sofia’s attorney immediately produced disclosures.
Her ownership had been reported to the trustee.
Elena herself had approved Haven Shield as one of three potential vendors.
Not hidden.
Not automatically corrupt.
Sofia had a real security background.
Dominic stared at the documents.
“She still benefits.”
His lawyer, Rachel Sloan, answered:
“Yes.”
“Enough to poison my son?”
“That is not evidence.”

Dominic hated her answer.
It was also correct.
