Chapter 983

“You want to question him–what, so he can be his own judge and jury?” Thomas asked.

Silas snapped coldly, “Shut up. No one asked for your opinion!”

He was still seething from the humiliation Thomas had made him suffer in front of everyone earlier.

Thomas paid him no mind and continued evenly, “With Jamie’s mental composure, what answers do you think you’ll get? Even if he did confess, then what? Will your family kill him? Cripple his hand? Or cut off every last deal with the Walton family?”

Sharon is still brooding over it.”

He sighed theatrically, then turned to Sharon.

“Sharon, I admit my little joke went too far. But if you choose to return the joke, I suppose that’s understandable. Still, you slapped me in public, then doused me with wine. Offering me a simple apology shouldn’t be too difficult, should it?”
