The Prison-Made Queen novel Chapter 983

On the other end of the line, Libby fell into stunned silence for two seconds before her voice pitched up, filled with shock and blinding rage. "What? Talbot actually dared? Is he trying to stage a coup?"

"Does he have any respect for the law, let alone us!" Her voice shook with the sheer force of her anger. "Don't be afraid, Letty! Don't panic! I'm having Donovan take a team over there right now! I want to see if Talbot has the guts to touch a single hair on your head!"

Hearing that her sister was about to unleash the Fulton family's full force, Letty quickly stopped her. Despite her grief, she still had a shred of reason left. "Libby! Don't do anything rash! Please!"

"As awful as Talbot is, legally, he is still Dante's son! This is an internal Langley dispute. It's family business! If the Fultons force their way in, it'll be completely unjustified. It'll just give them ammunition to tell the press that the main branch is using outside muscle to bully the second branch. The public backlash would ruin us!"

The line went dead silent, save for Libby's heavy, furious breathing. She clearly understood her sister's point.

But understanding it didn't make it any easier to accept. Her voice was thick with frustration. "But... but Letty! Are we just supposed to sit back and watch them do whatever the hell they want? Callahan is missing, Dante is under house arrest... is there no justice left in this world?"

Her voice broke into a sob, laced with heartbreak. "Letty, I feel so sick! Dante always treated me like a daughter, and I watched Callahan grow up. He’s basically my own nephew... How did it all come to this?"

Listening to her sister cry, Letty thought of her missing son and the imprisoned old man. Her heart twisted agonizingly, and her tears flowed even faster. "I know... Libby, I know you care, I know you're worried... But we can't meet force with force right now. It'll only make things worse and drag the Fultons down with us... Let's just calm down and think... There has to be a way. There has to be..."
