João smirked and pulled a pack of cigarettes out of his back pocket, lighting one up. “Not if all of Redwood’s richest burn with him,” he said. “We have the information to blackmail and destroy some of the most prestigious families. They can’t defend anyone else when their reputations are on the line.”
“You want to blackmail all of Redwood?” I asked.
It was a brilliant idea if it worked, but a stupid one if it failed.
João blew out a puff of smoke. “Redwood billionaires have treated the poor like we’re trash for the past hundred years. I know you would never understand that, as your daddy has given you everything, but it’s fucking time we push back. Fuck the billionaires. I want to watch them desperately grasp on to their hope as we crush them under our fucking boots.”
I rubbed my forehead and cursed. This had been coming for years now. I just hadn’t thought I’d ever take part in it. The Redwood rich had always been too corrupt for their own good.
“Are you in?” João asked.
I ran my tongue against the front of my teeth. This was beyond risky, but if it helped me put that man behind bars or in the ground, where he deserved to be, then I would do it. I would do anything to destroy the man who had ruined my entire life.
“Once you take care of Carter for me, I’m in.”
