Dylan Summers returned home late at night.
He believed that he had covered all his bases, and thus invited a lawyer to dine with him outside.
However, when he returned, he learned of the foolish mistake Laura had made.
Initially, he destroyed all the evidence in Purple Summers' hands, so even if she insisted on appealing, she would have no proof. If she made random accusations, Dylan could counter-sue her for defamation and extortion. But now, everything was destroyed by that one recording!
Even if the recording only contained Laura's insults, people outside would think it was Dylan's indulgence that led to his daughter's bullying behavior!
How would people see him? Cold, harsh, cruel, and lacking compassion?
His character would be questioned, and his career could be affected by this, making it difficult to advance further!
Even Yolanda Summers, who had not participated in this matter at all, would be implicated!
