Daniel placed a folder on Graham’s desk. My grandfather’s investment company owned an eighteen-percent voting interest in Harrington Global’s largest private holding company, acquired years before my marriage and kept entirely separate under our prenup. I had never used that position against Graham. But after reviewing company records connected to his relationship with Sierra, my attorney discovered corporate travel, expense reimbursements, and approval chains that deserved independent review.

I had not contacted the board demanding Graham be fired. I requested that the directors preserve records and examine whether company resources had been used improperly. By evening, the audit committee had begun reviewing executive travel, hotel expenses, and several payments Sierra had approved. Graham’s lawyers immediately called Adrian and asked whether I would withdraw my request as part of the divorce settlement. My answer was simple: marital negotiations and corporate governance were two separate matters.
