Chapter 15 THE DOWNFALL OF EVERYMAN!

LEONARD'S POV

I found myself pacing the room, my thoughts swirling with anger and frustration.

"Catherine, I need you," I said, my voice tense with urgency.

"You have the connections, the influence. Use it to quash this uproar on social media and clear my name. I can't let Liora walk away from this unscathed. Talk to the big players, the ones who can make things happen in this country. We can't let her win like this."

Catherine, always calm and composed, gave me a reassuring smile.

"Don't worry, Leonard, I've got it all under control. Liora's influence has waned significantly. Her parents have disowned her, so anything we say or do won't elicit any response from them.They won't lift a finger for her."

A wave of relief washed over me, but it was tinged with bitterness, that I could result to this.

"Good," I muttered.
