Silas Dunn fell silent after hearing Summer Thorne's response. He continued to stare at her, as if weighing the credibility of her answer.
'Could she really have done nothing to make Mason Crawford act so ruthlessly?'
The next moment, his phone suddenly rang.
Silas Dunn picked up his phone and glanced at it, his brow furrowing instinctively before he answered the call.
It was unclear what was said on the other end, but Silas Dunn's frown deepened. He simply said, "Got it," and hung up.
Summer Thorne watched him quietly, as if she had already braced herself for worse news.
"Someone went to the police and turned themselves in, willing to expose the Sutton Group's illegal operations," Silas Dunn said. "It was the partner from your Weslyn project."
Summer Thorne let out a soft laugh. "Willing to sacrifice himself to take us down. Truly ruthless."
