Looking at Hope Williams, who was now fired up by anger, Liam Cloud knew she had snapped out of it. His expression softened slightly.
Hope went upstairs and took out the recorder that Uncle Ruiz had given her, listening to it segment by segment.
The first recording was related to the assassination and framing of Maverick Williams:
"What do you need from me?"
"I need a favor—just a few men…"
"What good does framing Maverick Williams do for you?"
"He's the one who treated me like trash first. Why should I let him off easily…"
The second recording was about the time they conspired with Uncle Ruiz against her:
"Kid, don't think I don't know what you're plotting. Inviting me to Emperor Capital is because you know Luna Williams is dying, and if you manage to deal with Hope next, you'll be the sole heir of the Williams Family without lifting a finger. What a clever plan! Maverick Williams certainly raised a cunning grandson!"
