Amidst the gentle hum of chatter and the clinking of cups, Sternice leaned in, his voice low yet urgent, "So, I've compiled all of Dorothy's illegal activities into a comprehensive file. There's a detective already on the case. I suggest we share all our leads with him and ensure she gets arrested."Jake nodded thoughtfully, sipping his coffee before a sudden furrow creased his brow. "There's this man I've seen with her lately. Do you know him?" he inquired, concern flickering in his eyes."Ah, that's Victor," Sternice replied with a knowing look.

"I met with a man at the police station some time ago," Jake began, his voice low yet urgent as the train hummed to life around them.

"Should we meet with him?"Jake hesitated, his gaze distant as he weighed the implications. "It might be wise. But bringing Dorothy down with the help of a rival company could have repercussions down the line."Sarah's eyes narrowed thoughtfully. "If he truly has the means to bring her down for good, wouldn't he be a valuable ally in our fight against Dorothy?"Jake blinked, taken aback by Sarah's directness. "I... I don't want to risk damaging my father's company's reputation in the process. It's one of the most respected in town, but now it's under threat from within.""True," Sarah conceded gently, her voice reflective. "But just because a lea

"...so that means you're staying longer this time around," she said with a hint of determination in her voice.

They were worried that Dorothy's followers might attack them at any time.We have to be prepared," Jake urged, looking around the room.
