Chapter 1007Â
Many parents of those underage girls had run themselves ragged trying to bring him to justice, but in Marcentine, from the top to bottom ranks, he’d bought everyone off.Â
He’d beaten to death any parent who came to make a scene and interfere with his outings;Â
he’d even driven down those who dared stop his car to demand answers.Â
Wendy’s fists clenched as she listened. “Good heavens. How can a developed and powerful country like this harbor such scum?”Â
Thomas said, “Capitalist systems put profit above all. That oil magnate pumps enormous GDP into the government every year. The government doesn’t dare cross him. They bow and scrape instead.”Â
Wendy fumed, “This place is doomed. No decent person should stay here. No wonderÂ
monsters like the Kalen and Walton families exist.”Â
A faint, unreadable smile curved Thomas’s lips. “Want to see them tear each other apart?”Â
Wendy’s eyes lit. “Absolutely. These crimes are unforgivable-if we don’t take him down,Â
we’d be betraying humanity. And if we can seize his tools… even better.”Â
Thomas glanced at Sharon. “What do you think?”Â
Sharon nodded. “People like him deserve anything you do to them. If something happens,Â
it’s on me.” 1Â
With Sharon’s approval, Thomas slammed the accelerator.Â
The livestream exploded.Â
[I know who Thomas’s talking about. He was in international news years ago! Didn’t expectÂ
he’d still be around.]Â
[Thomas, crush those scum! We back you!]Â

[Wendy said Thomas gets a bonus per overturned car. Let’s tip her so Thomas can punish these monsters!]Â
[Thomas is fierce and handsome!]Â
[I know another monstrous rich kid- the plate is XXXX. They’re drunk-racing nearby. Go get him and I’ll tip ten Carnivals!]Â
[The guy above mentioned? I know him too-son of some financial titan. He’s worse than the oil magnate.]Â
[Thomas, go! How much do you need? We’ll crowdfund.]Â
[Hahaha! Marcentine is in chaos today!]Â
That comment thread blew up and rose to the top. Wendy read it aloud to Thomas. HeÂ
nodded.Â
“It’s true.”Â
Wendy muted the livestream and asked, curious, “Thomas, how did you know all this? YouÂ
even remembered license plates.”Â
Thomas didn’t hide it. “A few days ago, Xavier sent Sharon some files-people to watch. AsÂ
her bodyguard, I noted the dangerous ones.’Â
Sharon remembered. When Xavier called, Thomas had been there and asked if he could seeÂ
the files. There was nothing to hide, so she’d agreed.Â
Wendy’s face shifted to one of realization. “Oh, so all the late nights you’ve been pulling were for memorizing those lists. Thomas, thanks for doing that.”Â
A pang of guilt warmed Sharon’s chest. She’d spent the last days escorting Julliard aroundÂ
and hadn’t touched the files. Thomas had stayed up and read them all.Â
He waved her concern off. “They’re not hard to remember. I just skimmed them in spare moments. I didn’t have to stay up all night for that.”Â

Wendy blinked. “Then what were you doing all those nights?”Â

Thomas’s gaze darkened. “I was finding evidence. Didn’t I say I could find proof that Jamie abducted Sharon?”Â
