Sam stands outside the café, his back straight like a ramrod. His eyes follow the police officers as they handcuff Bradley Thomas, guide him into the back of their car, and drive away.
A crowd has gathered to watch the entire process. Most of them have their cameras out, recording like true news cameramen. Among the onlookers are several reporters. One of them is Jessica Kwan.
Sam notices her, and their eyes meet.
He gives a slight nod. Jessica smiles.
She knows she got the exclusive.
Ever since she wrote the article that reported Harrison Stille's downfall, she has become the unofficial exclusive reporter for Montrose Corporation.
Almost every major piece of news that comes out of the corporation is passed to Jessica first.
She is currently one of the hottest reporters in Arvion, but she has never forgotten who helped her reach this point.
And she genuinely enjoys working with Arthur and his staff.
