I'm coming over to help you sort this out. If I'm wrong then I will apologise with everything on the line… But if I'm right… we're going to need to take action."
Veronica muttered a shaky, "Alright," before the line went dead. Jason sighed and leaned back, already dreading what he might find.
Tim… you fat fuck… I told you to fuck off, but you didn't. Oh well. Maybe I should use you to gain a foothold back into Cross Capital. As Jason thought this far, his eyes went cold staring out of the window.
