Zack growled through clenched teeth, "You orchestrated Palmer's arrest, and when that wasn't enough, you went ahead and had the municipal party secretary taken into custody. Are you actively trying to destroy me?
"I understand you're not Brynlee's biological mother, and you can't replicate a real mother's instincts, but I never thought you could be this incredibly dense."
Caitlyn felt her world spinning. She recognized Palmer's name, but the municipal party secretary was a complete mystery. Her thoughts raced wildly, 'Who could that possibly be? The man who was standing beside Irina?'
Her voice shook as she protested, "T-that can't be right! I never instructed Jared to detain the municipal party secretary. How would I even have the audacity?" Terror made her entire body quake.
Zack spat back, "The two individuals Jared apprehended were the city Party secretary and Palmer. Caitlyn, how monumentally foolish can one person be? I'm finished, and you're dragging me down with you."
