James looks at Jackie with him instantly spotting the furious look on her face with her eyes really spelling it out for him yet he can't say he didn't expect a reply like this. "I know you hate for me this but heck someone had to give you the bad news. The world isn't as black and white as you'd expect with my 'friends' having moles within the police force and I suspect the police having a few within our friend's ranks. I honestly can't say how long this is going on but I can't remember it being any different so who knows how long the force has been corrupted", he says rather calmly not wanting to lash out towards the detective unless she'd lash out first. He fills the spoon with some more pasta with him moving that towards the girl's mouth, curious to see if she still wants to eat or if this has caused her to lose her appetite.<br/><br/>"I will let you in a little secret, one of the girl's is rather special", the lawyer says rather amused with him being quite unsure how much the redhead actually knows about the cases. "One of the girl's is the granddaughter of the banker that caused my grandfather to turn to our 'friends' in the first place. Her sale will mark a new beginning for the firm; one that's free from the loans we have both from the banks as well as from our friends. It might have taken almost 2 generations but we're free again and we're having out little revenge by selling off the most important person in that banker's live. He'll never see his precious Crystal again, as I got several buyers for that pretty brunette with them surely be bidding quite well for her tonight", James laughs with him holding the spoon up in front of Jackie's face.<br/><br/>Truth be told he was furious himself when his father told him about the debts but the more research he did into it the more he started to realize that it's mostly the banks fault. Of course legally they did nothing wrong but not the same can be said for it being a humane thing to do by demanding a far too high amount of interest. He knows it nearly ruined the firm and if the firm had fallen, his father and he would probably never become lawyers in the first place. The man sighs thinking back about it as he shakes his head slightly, the anger returning back just like every time he thinks about it. He quickly seems to cool himself down for a moment only to look at the detective with a smirk. "You know I'll make you a deal, you be a good little girl and I will allow you to see Crystal's auction. This does mean that I can kill two birds with one stone, sell that stupid bitch and show the buyers you, the pretty virgin redhead most of them surely want to see and buy", James says rather amused with him looking at the clock for a moment.<br/><br/>He knows he still has plenty of time left and as things were looking before he checked on Jackie everything was ahead of schedule so he doesn't need to rush things just yet. Soon he'll be able to sell her off and once he has done so he'll be scot free to do what he wants without anyone stopping him.
