Chapter 912 Taking The Fall Given that Dulcie had died on campus, the school authorities should naturally bear the main responsibility.
They should sacrifice Sally to quell the public outrago and safeguard the other families interests. It was a commonly employed strategy in such situations.
Collin and Wilbert gave each other a knowing look. They had found their scapegoat.
Thomas was also likely to agree with the plan as a mere daughter-in-law's fate was insignificant compared to the entire Reed family's survival.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtApart from the Thompsons and the Lowes, two other families were also involved. They naturally deferred to Collin's judgment since they were in the business field.
"But my people haven't been able to reach Mr. Reed Senior." Wilbert had tried calling Thomas but to no avail.
Collin found the situation odd as well. Just then, he received a call from home. It was the driver who had been with Alfie for years.
"Chief Lowe, Mr. Lowe Senior's instructions are to calm public sentiment first. He's already contacted the media department. None of you should respond publicly, this way, everything remains under control.
"Next, find the girl's parents and ask for their forgiveness. That will make resolving this matter much easier. Also, Mr. Lowe Senior wants to know where Mr. Wyatt is. He must stay out of sight right now." Collin whispered, "Please ask Mr. Lowe Senior not to worry. Wyatt is already at the airport." The driver replied, "Mr. Lowe Senior has pulled significant strings this time. You know this means owing many favors.
"We still need someone to take the fall. The impact of this incident is significant, and Mr. Lowe Senior took a risk with these connections. You should understand." After hanging up, Collin turned to Wilbert with a serious expression. “We need to find Sally." "Yes! Principal Dunbar should take responsibility. How could she not ensure certain cameras were turned off? The video has now been leaked.
*She should have anticipated these consequences after that girl from the Wilson family died. As a principal, she should have managed the parents better. Women just can't handle these things properly!" Wilbert fumed in annoyance.
When Budd first sought his help, Wilbert should have met with him to gauge his situation. Now, they were caught completely off guard.
Budd had approached him three times, and Wilbert had his secretary send him away each time. He didn't want anything to do with a comrade who had fallen on hard times.
Moreover, Wilbert feared someone might uncover how he had stolen credit back in the day.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmChapter 912 Taking The Fall Wilbert never thought that someone like Budd, with no significant background, could cause any real trouble. If Budd had any real capabilities, he wouldn't be living such a miserable life.
How Ironic for someone who had stolen another's credit to call the rightful owner useless.
At that moment, Wilbert had completely forgotten how Budd had once taken care of him. As Wynter had said, speople were rotten to the core.
Wilbert never considered disciplining Tessa for bullying his old comrade's daughter. He just thought that the Wilson's were trouble and hard to deal with. Wilbert raised his hand and said, "I'll find her."
Just then, his visibly nervous m secretary interrupted, "Director Thompson, there's no need for that. Principal Dunbar, she's..." "What about her?" Wilbert demanded, his patience wearing thin.
The secretary handed over his phone, "You should see for yourself."
Everyone felt a sense of foreboding as they watched Wilbert take then phone. When they saw the contents, their worst fears were confirmed. The shock was so great that Wilbert dropped the phone with a resounding thud.
