Daniel told me that Alexander had been asked to explain the fund’s oversight and the auction expenses.
“Will he lose his position?” I asked.
“That depends on what the committee finds and how the board responds.”
“Does he want to keep it?”
“I expect so.”
I thought about the company he had built, the years of work, and the people whose livelihoods depended on it.
Then I thought about the cost of telling the truth.
“He could say he approved it all,” I said.
“He could.”
“But he won’t.”
“Not according to what he has told me.”
The hearing was held in a conference room at the company’s headquarters.
I did not attend.
I had no reason to be there, and I would not make my pain part of a corporate proceeding.
Daniel represented my interests only where they were relevant to the records.
Afterward, he called me.
