"Now that the whole country knows about it, it doesn't seem like Thomas Shannon's style."
Lucifer flicked the cigarette ash, his eyes narrowed. "Perhaps Thomas Shannon isn't in trouble at all. He did this just to let Cecilia Branford know that he's injured."
"Your Highness, do you mean... Thomas Shannon is playing the victim card?"
After saying this, Leo thought carefully and realized it wasn't impossible.
Thomas Shannon is a businessman, a successful one. The K Group is one of the world's leading arms groups, and he is certainly no benevolent figure.
As the saying goes, one can't be a merchant without being unscrupulous. Playing the victim card would hit Sophie Sullivan's weakness and target her directly. Why wouldn't he do it?
Lucifer took a deep drag on his cigarette. "Have Derek Clark keep a close watch. See if Thomas Shannon is really injured."
"Yes, Your Highness, I understand. I will contact Derek Clark in a while and ask him to get the message as soon as possible."
