His grandfather always told him one simple rule that shaped everything he believed about the world.
“Rich or poor, Miles, your eyes decide your future because truth always hides inside the smallest details.”
Earlier that day Miles had found a thick leather wallet lying near a construction site containing large stacks of cash and an embossed business card that read Elliot Vance Chief Executive Officer.
He recognized the name instantly because everyone in Riverton City knew the Vance family as one of the wealthiest in the country.
He could have kept the money without anyone ever discovering the truth.
Instead, he walked several miles directly to the Vance corporate tower to return it personally despite his exhaustion.
While approaching the building he overheard emergency conversations about a critical situation involving the billionaire’s infant son.
Without hesitation he followed the voices until he reached Brookhaven Children’s Hospital.
Inside the pediatric wing panic filled every corner of the room as Elliot Vance stood frozen near the incubator while his wife Delaney Vance sobbed uncontrollably beside him.
