Eugene pulled out his phone and handed it to Mila. He had recorded something while eavesdropping-though not crystal clear, the crucial parts were there.

He weighed his options and decided to spill the beans. However, he deliberately omitted any mention of Lysander, steering the blame toward the Harvey family to keep himself clear.
