"If I play this recording for Susan, do you think you'll still be able to swagger around here?"
Liam's face drained of color and he cursed under his breath. Then, probably bored, he left with his team, not bothering me anymore.
Leaving the office, I headed straight to the lawyer's office where Ethan had been waiting for me for quite some time.
With the evidence we had meticulously gathered, we were well-prepared to take down the Norton Group.
I asked Ethan, "You stayed with the Norton Group for so long, were there ever any moments of hesitation?"
Ethan sneered and replied, "If it weren't for the Norton family, I wouldn't have lost my family in the first place. How could I have hesitated?"
It turned out that Ethan's biological parents had been under Susan's employ.
When Susan's husband had passed away and the Norton Group faced allegations of tax evasion and collusion with gangsters, Susan had used Ethan's parents as scapegoats. She then adopted Ethan to maintain her reputation.
We submitted the evidence, leveraging all of our connections to ensure it had the intended impact.
Eventually, the Norton Group collapsed under the weight of its scandals.
