Kim Churchill also instantly caught on.
"Right, everyone knows Cosimo Griffin is... he's in the underworld, so what he says can't be used as evidence," he clamored.
Cosimo Griffin sneered and said, "Director Churchill, I've been in business all my life, grappling with society, and dealt with more officials than you ever will. You think I'd trust you completely on our first collaboration? I have recordings of everything we talked about when we first met. How about we play them somewhere for everyone to hear?"
With those words.
Kim Churchill was instantly deflated.
A look of utter astonishment on his face.
Seeing this, Charleston Thorne shouted, "Kim Churchill, is this true or not?"
Kim Churchill shuddered.
His face was more miserable than crying.
"Let me ask you again, is it true?"
Another stern inquiry.
Charleston Thorne's authoritative presence, along with his fierce gaze, finally broke down Kim Churchill's defenses.
