We listened to the recording at Nina's office.<\/p>\n
Not at the townhouse.<\/p>\n
Not with Robert present.<\/p>\n
After Nina disclosed what the forensic team had found, Robert left without another word. Daniel did not try to stop him again.<\/p>\n
I did not ask Daniel to come with us.<\/p>\n
He asked anyway.<\/p>\n
\u201cNo,\u201d I said.<\/p>\n
\u201cClaire, I'm on those recordings.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI know.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI should hear what they recovered.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYou were there when it happened.\u201d<\/p>\n
That ended the discussion.<\/p>\n
At 8:20 that evening, Nina, Priya and I sat around a small conference table while the forensic specialist connected a secured laptop to external speakers.<\/p>\n
The first recording lasted fifty-three minutes.<\/p>\n
The room captured in the audio sounded large.<\/p>\n
Glasses clinked.<\/p>\n
A chair scraped.<\/p>\n
Then Robert's voice.<\/p>\n
Clear.<\/p>\n
Confident.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe have one structural problem.\u201d<\/p>\n
Stephen answered.<\/p>\n
\u201cClaire.\u201d<\/p>\n
My name spoken by strangers in a room I had never entered made my skin crawl.<\/p>\n
Robert continued.<\/p>\n
\u201cDaniel controls operations but not the vote.\u201d<\/p>\n
Andrew spoke next.<\/p>\n
\u201cCan she be diluted?\u201d<\/p>\n
Stephen answered.<\/p>\n
\u201cNot easily. The shareholder agreement protects her.\u201d<\/p>\n
Robert laughed.<\/p>\n
\u201cOf course it does. She wrote half the damn protections.\u201d<\/p>\n
I looked at Nina.<\/p>\n
She said nothing.<\/p>\n
Then Daniel spoke.<\/p>\n
Younger.<\/p>\n
Less guarded.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat are the options?\u201d<\/p>\n
My chest tightened.<\/p>\n
Not surprise.<\/p>\n
He was already participating.<\/p>\n
Stephen explained several lawful possibilities.<\/p>\n
Negotiate a buyout.<\/p>\n
Issue shares with my approval.<\/p>\n
Restructure by mutual consent.<\/p>\n
Daniel rejected each one.<\/p>\n
\u201cShe won't sell.\u201d<\/p>\n
Robert asked, \u201cHave you asked?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNo.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThen how do you know?\u201d<\/p>\n
Daniel laughed.<\/p>\n
\u201cBecause she thinks ownership is security.\u201d<\/p>\n
I remembered telling him exactly that.<\/p>\n
Years earlier.<\/p>\n
After my father died.<\/p>\n
I had explained why I never wanted to surrender controlling ownership.<\/p>\n
Dad had taught me that financial independence was not distrust.<\/p>\n
It was protection against becoming trapped by circumstances.<\/p>\n
Daniel had kissed my forehead.<\/p>\n
He told me he understood.<\/p>\n
Now I heard him turn that private conversation into strategic intelligence.<\/p>\n
The recording continued.<\/p>\n
Stephen suggested developing new opportunities outside Prescott Logistics.<\/p>\n
Daniel liked that.<\/p>\n
Robert liked it more.<\/p>\n
Then came the first mention of Lantern.<\/p>\n
\u201cCall it something meaningless,\u201d Robert said.<\/p>\n
Andrew suggested the name.<\/p>\n
Everyone laughed.<\/p>\n
Including Daniel.<\/p>\n
The sound made me feel physically ill.<\/p>\n
The next twenty minutes dealt with entity structures.<\/p>\n
Property.<\/p>\n
Contracts.<\/p>\n
Financing.<\/p>\n
Then Stephen asked the obvious question.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhere does the capital come from?\u201d<\/p>\n
Robert answered.<\/p>\n
\u201cClaire.\u201d<\/p>\n
Silence on the recording.<\/p>\n
Then Daniel.<\/p>\n
\u201cNo.\u201d<\/p>\n
My eyes closed briefly.<\/p>\n
For one fragile second, relief entered.<\/p>\n
Then Robert said, \u201cNot directly.\u201d<\/p>\n
He explained.<\/p>\n
Prescott Logistics could expand its credit facility.<\/p>\n
My existing guarantees and investment assets would support the borrowing.<\/p>\n
Corporate cash could then fund projects and contracts that gradually migrated into Lantern-linked entities.<\/p>\n
Daniel sounded uneasy.<\/p>\n
\u201cShe'll see the numbers.\u201d<\/p>\n
Robert replied.<\/p>\n
\u201cOnly if she starts operating again.\u201d<\/p>\n
That sentence hurt in a different way.<\/p>\n
I had stepped away from daily financial work partly because Daniel asked me to.<\/p>\n
He said my constant oversight made senior managers nervous.<\/p>\n
He said he needed room to lead.<\/p>\n
I believed leadership required trust.<\/p>\n
So I gave him room.<\/p>\n
Robert had identified that trust as an opportunity.<\/p>\n
Daniel said, \u201cShe still reviews tax packages.\u201d<\/p>\n
Stephen answered, \u201cThen the classifications need to look ordinary.\u201d<\/p>\n
Consulting fees.<\/p>\n
Strategic development.<\/p>\n
Advisory services.<\/p>\n
The labels we had found.<\/p>\n
I pressed my palms against my knees.<\/p>\n
Priya stopped the recording.<\/p>\n
\u201cDo you want a break?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNo.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cClaire.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cKeep going.\u201d<\/p>\n
She did.<\/p>\n
The conversation moved to contracts.<\/p>\n
Robert proposed shifting a customer as a test.<\/p>\n
Daniel resisted.<\/p>\n
Not because it was dishonest.<\/p>\n
Because it was risky.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat if Claire notices revenue disappearing?\u201d<\/p>\n
Robert answered, \u201cGive her a reason.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat reason?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cCustomers leave.\u201d<\/p>\n
Daniel laughed quietly.<\/p>\n
\u201cShe'll want details.\u201d<\/p>\n
Robert replied, \u201cThen give her a crisis instead.\u201d<\/p>\n
I stopped breathing.<\/p>\n
There it was.<\/p>\n
Months before Harrington Foods.<\/p>\n
The crisis had been designed in advance.<\/p>\n
The recording ended without a final decision.<\/p>\n
The next file was dated six weeks later.<\/p>\n
Daniel was present.<\/p>\n
So were Robert and Stephen.<\/p>\n
Andrew joined midway through.<\/p>\n
They discussed Harrington.<\/p>\n
The customer was not unhappy.<\/p>\n
The customer had been approached with a lower rate through another carrier.<\/p>\n
A carrier connected to Lantern.<\/p>\n
Daniel said, \u201cIf we move them, Prescott takes a major hit.\u201d<\/p>\n
Robert answered, \u201cTemporarily.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd Claire?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cClaire stabilizes it.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cHow?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYou already know how.\u201d<\/p>\n
There was a long silence.<\/p>\n
Then Daniel said, \u201cShe'll guarantee the line if she thinks jobs are at risk.\u201d<\/p>\n
My throat closed.<\/p>\n
Priya paused the audio again.<\/p>\n
This time I did not tell her to continue immediately.<\/p>\n
I looked at the wall.<\/p>\n
For four years, I had remembered that October night as one of Daniel's most vulnerable moments.<\/p>\n
His hands shaking.<\/p>\n
His eyes wet.<\/p>\n
His voice breaking when he talked about employees losing their jobs.<\/p>\n
I had held him.<\/p>\n
He had laid his forehead against my shoulder.<\/p>\n
Now I knew the emotion had not necessarily been false.<\/p>\n
Perhaps he had been frightened.<\/p>\n
Perhaps he had hated what he was doing.<\/p>\n
But he had done it knowingly.<\/p>\n
That distinction mattered.<\/p>\n
\u201cContinue.\u201d<\/p>\n
The recording resumed.<\/p>\n
Stephen asked, \u201cCan you sell it?\u201d<\/p>\n
Daniel answered.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThe crisis.\u201d<\/p>\n
Another pause.<\/p>\n
Then Daniel said the sentence I knew I would remember for the rest of my life.<\/p>\n
\u201cClaire believes me when I'm scared.\u201d<\/p>\n
Nobody in Nina's conference room moved.<\/p>\n
On the recording, Robert replied, \u201cThen be scared.\u201d<\/p>\n
Andrew laughed.<\/p>\n
Not loudly.<\/p>\n
Enough.<\/p>\n
I stared at the speaker.<\/p>\n
Claire believes me when I'm scared.<\/p>\n
Daniel had identified my trust as a mechanism.<\/p>\n
Not merely my money.<\/p>\n
My love.<\/p>\n
The part of me that responded when he was frightened.<\/p>\n
The part that stayed awake when he couldn't sleep.<\/p>\n
The part that wanted to protect him from failure.<\/p>\n
He had taken something intimate and converted it into financing.<\/p>\n
I stood.<\/p>\n
Nina watched me.<\/p>\n
\u201cBathroom,\u201d I said.<\/p>\n
Nobody followed.<\/p>\n
I locked myself inside and gripped the sink.<\/p>\n
For several minutes, I did not cry.<\/p>\n
Then I did.<\/p>\n
Quietly.<\/p>\n
I cried for the woman sitting at the kitchen island four years earlier.<\/p>\n
For the woman who had believed her husband was ashamed of failing employees.<\/p>\n
For my father, whose money had become fuel for a scheme he would have recognized instantly.<\/p>\n
For the years I had defended Daniel when friends said he was becoming arrogant.<\/p>\n
For every time I interpreted secrecy as stress.<\/p>\n
When the tears stopped, I washed my face.<\/p>\n
The mirror showed red eyes and a tired woman.<\/p>\n
Nothing more dramatic.<\/p>\n
I returned to the conference room.<\/p>\n
\u201cNext.\u201d<\/p>\n
Nina did not ask whether I was sure.<\/p>\n
The third recording came from the week after Harrington moved.<\/p>\n
Daniel sounded exhausted.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt worked.\u201d<\/p>\n
Robert answered, \u201cOf course it worked.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cShe increased the guarantee.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cHow much?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cOne-point-eight.\u201d<\/p>\n
Andrew whistled.<\/p>\n
Daniel said nothing for several seconds.<\/p>\n
Then:<\/p>\n
\u201cI feel like hell.\u201d<\/p>\n
Robert responded, \u201cYou'll feel better when you control what you built.\u201d<\/p>\n
Daniel said something too quiet to catch.<\/p>\n
The recording continued.<\/p>\n
Then came the line that changed my understanding again.<\/p>\n
Daniel said, \u201cThis is the last time we use Claire.\u201d<\/p>\n
Robert laughed.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere is no last time once something works.\u201d<\/p>\n
I looked at Nina.<\/p>\n
She noticed too.<\/p>\n
Daniel had not begun as Robert.<\/p>\n
That did not absolve him.<\/p>\n
But there had been a boundary somewhere inside him.<\/p>\n
A boundary he recognized.<\/p>\n
Then crossed repeatedly.<\/p>\n
The later recordings documented the erosion.<\/p>\n
First, Daniel objected to forged signatures.<\/p>\n
Then tolerated them.<\/p>\n
Later, he asked Stephen whether a signature could be \u201chandled.\u201d<\/p>\n
Eventually, he reviewed documents containing them without comment.<\/p>\n
By the third year, the language changed.<\/p>\n
Claire became CM.<\/p>\n
My marriage became transition planning.<\/p>\n
My ownership became the voting problem.<\/p>\n
My personality became narrative leverage.<\/p>\n
The man who once said he felt like hell disappeared from the recordings.<\/p>\n
In his place was someone discussing how upset I needed to become before signing separation papers.<\/p>\n
At 11:16, we reached the most recent audio.<\/p>\n
Recorded twelve days before our anniversary.<\/p>\n
Daniel.<\/p>\n
Melissa.<\/p>\n
Robert.<\/p>\n
Stephen.<\/p>\n
Andrew.<\/p>\n
Melissa asked, \u201cHow hard do you want me to push her?\u201d<\/p>\n
Daniel answered, \u201cEnough that she leaves.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat if she doesn't?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cShe will.\u201d<\/p>\n
Andrew asked, \u201cAnd the paperwork?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cPeter's office sends it the next morning.\u201d<\/p>\n
Robert said, \u201cMake sure Exhibit D stays attached.\u201d<\/p>\n
Daniel replied, \u201cI know.\u201d<\/p>\n
There was no ambiguity left.<\/p>\n
Melissa laughed.<\/p>\n
\u201cI'll film it. Maybe that'll make her too embarrassed to come back.\u201d<\/p>\n
Daniel said, \u201cFine.\u201d<\/p>\n
My stomach tightened.<\/p>\n
Then Andrew asked a question.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat if she calls Nina?\u201d<\/p>\n
Silence.<\/p>\n
Daniel answered.<\/p>\n
\u201cShe won't.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cHow do you know?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cBecause Claire still thinks this is a marriage.\u201d<\/p>\n
The recording ended.<\/p>\n
Nobody spoke.<\/p>\n
I looked down at my hands.<\/p>\n
My wedding ring was no longer there.<\/p>\n
The pale line around my finger had already begun fading.<\/p>\n
Nina closed the laptop.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat's enough for tonight.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYes.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cClaire.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYes.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWe now have evidence supporting several serious claims. The forensic team needs to complete authentication before anyone relies on these recordings formally.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI understand.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cDo not send them to Daniel.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI won't.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cDo not send them to his family.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI won't.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cDo not post anything.\u201d<\/p>\n
I looked at her.<\/p>\n
\u201cDo you really think I would?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNo.\u201d<\/p>\n
She gathered the files.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut tomorrow may be ugly.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIt already is.\u201d<\/p>\n
Priya left first.<\/p>\n
The forensic specialist followed.<\/p>\n
Nina and I remained.<\/p>\n
My phone had been silent for almost an hour.<\/p>\n
Then it rang.<\/p>\n
Daniel.<\/p>\n
I watched his name.<\/p>\n
\u201cDo you want me to answer?\u201d Nina asked.<\/p>\n
\u201cNo.\u201d<\/p>\n
I answered myself.<\/p>\n
\u201cClaire.\u201d<\/p>\n
His voice was hoarse.<\/p>\n
\u201cI know you heard them.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cHow?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAndrew told me.\u201d<\/p>\n
Of course.<\/p>\n
\u201cI heard them.\u201d<\/p>\n
Daniel breathed out.<\/p>\n
\u201cI need to explain the context.\u201d<\/p>\n
I closed my eyes.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere is no context for that sentence.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWhich sentence?\u201d<\/p>\n
That question told me there were too many possibilities.<\/p>\n
I chose the one that mattered.<\/p>\n
\u201cClaire believes me when I'm scared.\u201d<\/p>\n
Silence.<\/p>\n
Daniel's breathing became audible.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou remember saying it?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYes.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYou remember coming home afterward?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYes.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYou remember crying?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYes.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWas that real?\u201d<\/p>\n
A long pause.<\/p>\n
\u201cYes.\u201d<\/p>\n
I believed him.<\/p>\n
That somehow made it worse.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou were actually scared.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYes.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd you still used it.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYes.\u201d<\/p>\n
I sat down.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhy?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI thought I could fix everything afterward.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat does that mean?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI thought once Lantern became valuable, I could unwind it. Repay the money. Restore what moved.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWithout telling me?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI don't know.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYes, you do.\u201d<\/p>\n
He began crying.<\/p>\n
Quietly.<\/p>\n
I recognized the sound.<\/p>\n
Four years earlier, it would have moved me instantly.<\/p>\n
Tonight, I listened differently.<\/p>\n
Not cruelly.<\/p>\n
Just accurately.<\/p>\n
\u201cClaire, I loved you.\u201d<\/p>\n
Past tense.<\/p>\n
Maybe he noticed.<\/p>\n
\u201cI love you.\u201d<\/p>\n
I looked through Nina's office window at the lights across downtown.<\/p>\n
\u201cDid you love me when you planned the dinner?\u201d<\/p>\n
He did not answer.<\/p>\n
\u201cDid you love me when you downloaded Exhibit D?\u201d<\/p>\n
Silence.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen you read the settlement number?\u201d<\/p>\n
Nothing.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen you let Stephen use my signature?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cClaire, please.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNo.\u201d<\/p>\n
I spoke quietly.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnswer one.\u201d<\/p>\n
His breathing hitched.<\/p>\n
\u201cDid you love me when you told them I still thought this was a marriage?\u201d<\/p>\n
The silence lasted so long I checked whether the call had disconnected.<\/p>\n
Then Daniel whispered, \u201cI don't know what I was anymore.\u201d<\/p>\n
For the first time all week, he had said something I believed completely.<\/p>\n
I ended the call.<\/p>\n
Nina looked at me.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat now?\u201d<\/p>\n
I stared at the dark phone.<\/p>\n
The investigation had begun with money.<\/p>\n
Then ownership.<\/p>\n
Then forgery.<\/p>\n
Then Project Lantern.<\/p>\n
But the recordings had transformed the problem.<\/p>\n
Daniel's father had designed the architecture.<\/p>\n
Stephen had built much of the machinery.<\/p>\n
Andrew had helped move the pieces.<\/p>\n
Melissa had helped stage the trap.<\/p>\n
Daniel had chosen, again and again, to keep going.<\/p>\n
Tomorrow, the board would hear the authenticated portions.<\/p>\n
The bank would receive the relevant evidence.<\/p>\n
Outside counsel would decide what required referral beyond the company.<\/p>\n
And I would file for divorce.<\/p>\n
But there was one thing I wanted before any of that.<\/p>\n
Not revenge.<\/p>\n
Not an apology.<\/p>\n
The truth about what remained.<\/p>\n
Because Robert had said there was no last time once something worked.<\/p>\n
Which meant every scheme we had discovered might simply be the schemes that had left records.<\/p>\n
I looked at Nina.<\/p>\n
\u201cStart at the beginning.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThe beginning of Lantern?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNo.\u201d<\/p>\n
I thought of Daniel before Lantern.<\/p>\n
Before Harrington.<\/p>\n
Before the first forged authorization.<\/p>\n
\u201cGo back to the year I invested the six hundred forty thousand.\u201d<\/p>\n
Nina's eyes narrowed.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou think something happened then?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI don't know.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat are we looking for?\u201d<\/p>\n
I remembered Daniel crying at our kitchen table when Prescott Logistics was supposedly forty-eight hours from missing payroll.<\/p>\n
The crisis that persuaded me to invest.<\/p>\n
The crisis on which our entire ownership structure had been built.<\/p>\n
For nine years, I had believed that one, at least, was real.<\/p>\n
Now I could no longer afford belief.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe original rescue,\u201d I said.<\/p>\n
Nina understood.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou want to verify whether the company was actually failing.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYes.\u201d<\/p>\n
She opened her laptop again.<\/p>\n
The clock on the wall read 11:43.<\/p>\n
Neither of us mentioned the hour.<\/p>\n
Nina pulled the oldest available bank records.<\/p>\n
I moved my chair beside hers.<\/p>\n
Seven minutes later, she stopped scrolling.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat?\u201d<\/p>\n
She enlarged a transfer dated three days before my original investment.<\/p>\n
Prescott Logistics had received money.<\/p>\n
Not paid it.<\/p>\n
Received it.<\/p>\n
Four hundred thousand dollars.<\/p>\n
Then the money had moved out again the following morning.<\/p>\n
Recipient: Prescott Advisory Group.<\/p>\n
I had never heard of it.<\/p>\n
\u201cOwner?\u201d I asked.<\/p>\n
Nina searched the historical corporate registry.<\/p>\n
The result appeared.<\/p>\n
Robert Prescott.<\/p>\n
Daniel's father.<\/p>\n
We stared at the screen.<\/p>\n
Three days before Daniel told me the company could not make payroll, four hundred thousand dollars had been transferred out of Prescott Logistics to his father's company.<\/p>\n
Two days later, Daniel asked me for six hundred forty thousand.<\/p>\n
My skin went cold.<\/p>\n
The first crisis.<\/p>\n
The one that started everything.<\/p>\n
Maybe it had never been a crisis at all.<\/p>\n
We listened to the recording at Nina's office. Not at the townhouse. Not with Robert present. After Nina disclosed what the forensic team had found, Robert left without another word. … <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3525,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3537","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-chapter-story"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/thechapterstory.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3537","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/thechapterstory.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/thechapterstory.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thechapterstory.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thechapterstory.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=3537"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/thechapterstory.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3537\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3555,"href":"https:\/\/thechapterstory.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3537\/revisions\/3555"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thechapterstory.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/3525"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/thechapterstory.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=3537"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thechapterstory.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=3537"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thechapterstory.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=3537"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
