Maybe it really was possible!
Wanting to be sure, Camila Davis didn’t hang around at the Reed family’s place for long.
The moment she stepped outside, she pulled out her phone and called Dennis Williams.
His voice, smooth and warm with that mellow baritone, came through like a cool stream on a hot day. “Ms. Davis.”
Her heart skipped a beat. She wasted no time. “Mr. Williams, it’s done. Just like I planned, Sandra Taylor walked right into the trap. She slipped up and confessed to stealing the data—cops have already taken her in.”
Dennis didn’t sound surprised at all. He actually chuckled, “Is that so? Well, congratulations. That’s quite the comeback, and you exposed her for who she really is.”
Camila’s words held a hidden meaning. “Honestly, it all went so smoothly because the FDA folks who came to investigate were super cooperative, and the Reeds helped out—whether they meant to or not. I’m guessing I have you to thank for that?”
Dennis paused for a couple seconds, then gave a soft laugh. “Just a small favor. Nothing worth losing sleep over.”
So it really was him!
Camila felt her chest tighten with emotion.
For years, she’d fought for everything with her own two hands. Even when she’d been married to someone as high up as Jordan Smith, she’d never really benefited from his status.
But tonight, after just a casual chat, Dennis Williams remembered her words and pulled strings to help her out—without a second thought.
How could she not be moved?
“Honestly, I feel like I owe you more and more favors. This isn’t something I can just pay back with a dinner of burgers and fries.”
