Chapter 1120 Life or Death (Part Fifteen)
- Kate Penrose was the first to push back: “Sweetie, how are you still this naive? If calling the cops worked, my friend would’ve blown his whole case wide open ages ago. And you think Donnie Burns will just watch his son get hauled in and do nothing? He’ll grease palms left and right. By the time it’s over, it’ll all be wiped clean. Also, don’t forget the most important point: given who Finn Wembley is right now and where you stand, if you report him and they find nothing, it’ll look like someone’s slinging mud on purpose. You’ll be the first suspect. The whole thing flips. It becomes you trying to snatch Regal Peaks by framing Finn Wembley on purpose. Then how the hell do you compete with him?”
- Madison Sawyer went quiet.
- There was more they didn’t know: Donnie Burns was so furious he could spit blood. He was scouring the city for Finn Wembley and still couldn’t find where Finn had gone.
