Too Late to Hold Me Back novel Chapter 1126

Vivienne remained silent, while Justin kept lecturing her until it was time to board the flight.

Having said his piece, Justin ignored his sister and walked ahead. Once they returned home, he would take her place as the Vice President of the Voss Group. That was the one silver lining he gained from this disaster. As for Vivienne, she would be reduced to nothing more than a pawn for a political marriage—her only remaining value. But after this massive blunder, even her marriage prospects had plummeted. She would likely only secure a match with a second-rate family.

The day after returning home, Owen handed over the witnesses and all the evidence pointing to Lawrence Lance directly to Aethelgard Airways.

They were the biggest victims of that plane incident and harbored the deepest hatred for Lawrence. The airline's business still hadn't recovered. Therefore, it was most appropriate for them to file the lawsuit.

Crimes involving threats to public safety and massive property damage carried far heavier sentences than simply endangering Mira and her friends. A mere attempted murder charge against individuals wouldn't lock Lawrence away for long.

What Owen needed to do was file a separate suit regarding Lawrence's collusion with the Balkan Underworld and his repeated assassination attempts on Mira.

Furthermore, Owen reached out to the families of victims from several murders Lawrence had orchestrated over the years, coordinating a joint lawsuit.

Since those families were ordinary citizens, Owen covered all their legal and filing fees to ease their financial burden.

As for the murder of Owen's mother twenty years ago, too much time had passed, and the direct evidence had long been erased. The indirect evidence Owen had gathered over the years wasn't enough to bring down Jocelyn Lance. He had to temporarily set it aside.

Lawrence was the prized jewel of Richard and Jocelyn. By destroying their precious son first, Owen knew it would shatter their comfortable lives.

Inside the Chairman's office of the Quinn Group.

Sebastian Quinn was reviewing documents when the receptionist called. "Mr. Quinn, the police are here. They... they said they're here to arrest your son-in-law..."

"Lawrence is a prime suspect in a major felony. If he escapes, can you bear the responsibility?"

Harboring a fugitive and aiding an escape would be enough to destroy Sebastian.

In the office, the moment Lawrence heard Sebastian's end of the conversation, his face turned ashen.

As the son-in-law and the executive assistant, his desk was right next to Sebastian's. He had barely secured a foothold in the Quinn Group. He hadn't even had time to build his network, execute his grand plans, and take over the company. How could he be arrested now? Wouldn't all his efforts have been for nothing?

The last time he was arrested over the worker's death at the construction site, his parents had to spend a fortune and pull countless strings to bail him out. What crime was it this time?
