But his former allies weren't backing him up.
"Don't listen to him! We have proof!" "You traitors!" Bruno roared in anger.
The men who'd fawned over him moments ago were now willing to sell him out for a mere million bucks.
Domenic, having settled Lindsey back on the sofa, rose and approached Bruno with a measured pace.

"Mr-Mr Walsh, please don't listen to them.

Show no mercy!" At this, Bruno's voice rose in a frantic shout.
"You can't handover to the police.
Do you even know who's backing me?" "Oh?" Domenic's voice dripped with skepticism as he peered down at Bruno.

Soon, the call was answered.
"Wyatt, to what do I owe the pleasure?" Hearing Jalen's voice, Bruno stiffened.
