Party Pooper
'If Alvin doesn't want to have any association with you, why would he put his men behind Janet Collins?'
Wilson swallowed hard. The truth was Janet abandoned Alvin and Wilson never cared about Alvin despite knowing about his existence from the beginning of his relationship with Janet.
Now he was trying to acquaint himself with Alvin because he is broke. He wished to climb the ladder back by using Alvin's money and reputation. He wanted to get the same respect he was getting before.
Could he tell Richard about it?
No.
The truth would easily reveal he was the mastermind behind the situation. He could lie as Alvin was being sadistic.
Would it be believable enough? Wilson suspected.
He could only hope that Janet would listen to him and lie to the cops. Hence he repeated his line, "You should ask him."
