Chapter 17- From the Desk of William Pemberley
Subject: Resolution – G. Wick
Classification: Eyes Only/Burn After Reading
Status: Executed
Cloud backups (iCloud, Google Drive, three offshore drops): nuked
Physical devices (phone + two laptops): remotely bricked + courier “retrieval” scheduled tonight
Federal revenge-porn filing + Florida §934.10 extortion charges: filed under seal, ready to unseal if he blinks
Wick’s offshore accounts (Cayman + Panama): frozen this morning via quiet word from two board members who owe me favors
Settlement wire: $400k drafted, routed through Magda Cruz, release conditioned on signed NDA + full deletion verification
Press packet (screenshots, chat logs, financials): pre-loaded, embargoed 72 hrs. If he ever speaks her name again, Miami wakes up to front-page news of his “yacht lifestyle.”
Personal note (delete before archive):
I promised I wouldn’t tell a soul.
I lied.
Max Lopez (PI) and Magda Cruz (Lawyer) don’t know her name. That has to count for something.
Commission for L. Benitez:
She’ll get to keep it. She earned it, it’s as it should be.
GW humiliation level:
Moderate. Could have ruined him publicly. Chose surgical instead.
Final entry:
This should have been done when he messed with Giana.
It should’ve been this instead of the punch. This would hurt him more.
I was too slow and too unsure of myself then.
She’s paying for my inaction.
Never again.
End of memo.
