Free Unbearable Passion - Total Abandonment: Billionaire Erotica Romance (Unbearable Passion series Book 4) by Scarlett Avery

professional athletes who burn through money so foolishly. I guess money comes way easy for them.” Bryce is obviously annoyed by these stories of wasted money.
    “Belyakov also had a thing for very young girls.”
    “How young?”
    “From my research, Belyakov has had sexual relationships with girls as young as thirteen. His supplier was one of Vladislav’s mobster friends who also happens to be living in Brighton Beach, aka Little Russia.”
    “I can’t believe these scumbags.”
    The entire room agrees with Bryce’s statement.
    “Ershova-Kamenev knew of this and in fact had arranged with his mobster friend to photograph Belyakov in the act. When Ershova-Kamenev started putting pressure on Belyakov to get more and more money, Belyakov hired investigators who contacted the NYPD for help. That’s the first connection we have between Ershova-Kamenev and extortion. We contacted Rocco Belyakov’s contact in Russia and he was happy to talk on behalf of his client. He’s the one who tipped us off to the fact that the federal agents had been keeping a very close eye on our friendly Russian bad guy.”
    “What do you mean federal agents? What do they have to do with a story like this, since it doesn’t involve a U.S. resident? I mean, Rocco Belyakov is Russian and still living there.”
    “Yes, but there’s a lot more to Vladislav Ershova-Kamenev than meets the eye.”
    “It’s sounding like it.”
    “He also had an affair with Amaliya Chashnik, a Russian spy nabbed by U.S. authorities in 2010 who has since become a pinup in Russia. Since the U.S. authorities had been tracking Chashnik for several months, they had photos of her whereabouts on American soil. They were tracking her from dusk until the middle of the night. It was a twenty-four-hours-a-day job because she had highly sensitive information that could put the country at risk if she ever talked. On some of those photos we recognized a familiar face, but the kicker was the license plate on the guy’s vehicle. Since Brad Keller never conducted his personal life under his American name, he was careless. We matched the license plate to Vladislav and we were able to open up a Pandora’s box of nastiness.”
    “Sofia, are you okay? I know it’s a lot to handle and I’m sure none of this is making you feel comfortable, but at least you now know who Brad Keller really was.”
    “I’m shocked by what Richard has been sharing so far,” I say, dumbfounded.
    “There’s unfortunately more, Ms. Herrera.”
    “Keep going, Richard.”
    “Thanks, Bryce. As I’ve said earlier, the money trail runs deep. This guy was raking in money each and every week from his victims. Brad Keller had a number of accounts in the Cayman Islands, Monaco, Luxembourg and Switzerland. All his accounts were quite full which suggests Ms. Herrera was not the only person he was swindled.”
    “So what next?”
    “Well, as I was saying to Misty earlier, we need to block his access to his funds in order to seize all those millions. We also need to find the origin of the transactions in order to track the people he embezzled or blackmailed.”
    “All right. Great job, gang! That was some serious thinking on your part, Richard, to put all of this together. I’ll get the necessary papers to get Brad Keller, aka Vladislav Ershova-Kamenev, back in America and I need the rest of the team to focus on tracking anyone he’s stolen from who would be willing to talk to us. We need as much data as possible to find this creep.”
    “We’ll get on it immediately and I’ll work with Richard and a few others to track more foreign accounts.”
    Misty is already headed for the door with her team and they’re all eager to keep digging to find more incriminating evidence against Brad Keller. Bryce waits for everyone to leave the room before he approaches me and takes me in his arms. “Are you okay?”
    “No, Bryce, I really am not. This story is bigger than me and bigger than any help Ciara could
