My adoptive mother came to me afterward.
After Jason regained consciousness in the hospital, she had him quietly shipped off—claiming he was mentally unstable and needed professional treatment.
I had no idea where they took him.
And frankly, I didn't care to find out.
While Jason was still unconscious, I'd secretly copied the recordings from the car and sent them to my adoptive mother.
The moment she got them, she cut a deal with me.
If that evidence ever went public, Jason's crimes would be undeniable.
And let's face it—bullying his own adoptive sister? Not a great look.
Jason, that lunatic, might not have given a damn about the Sinclair family's reputation.
But his adoptive parents weren't about to let their life's work go up in flames.
Of course, Lucas played his part too.
He made sure Jason's criminal evidence found its way to my adoptive father.
The old couple knew exactly how to handle it.
Three months after Jason was discreetly removed, the Sinclair family was swindled, their financial chain snapped, and they spiraled into a full-blown economic crisis.
In the end, they had no choice but to accept a takeover.
The buyer's last name?
Langford.
