Chapter 62

"Don't lie to me. I'll verify this with Stephen." Simon pulled out his phone.

Before he could punch the numbers, his phone rang with a call from Stephen. The suspicious timing of the call made Simon's heart sink. He dreaded the realization of his worst fear.

Simon shakily took the call.

"Dad, North Hill City is in trouble."

Those words hit Simon like a ton of bricks.

It was true. North Hill City was done for. To make matters worse, they gave the culprits the means to commit the crime.

Simon interrupted Stephen and said, "I got it. Your priority is to restore order in the city.

"Stop the mayhem from spreading. North Hill City's economy can't afford another hit."

Then, he ended the call.

Faced with the accusations, Simon could not hold his tongue anymore.

"Who jumped on the idea with Stephen? Who wanted to interview them? Who helped them achieve nationwide recognition?

"Who made Ethan the scapegoat?"

The barrage of questions shut everybody up.
