Marz was rendered speechless for a moment; this was damn near flipping the entire prison upside down, and yet it could be described as a minor issue?
Although that was what he was thinking, his expression remained unchanged as he replied, "Director David, I've heard about a little misunderstanding between you and our Deputy Warden Andrew. I believe we can settle this matter 'peacefully.'"
David shook his finger and said, "This is not a minor misunderstanding, let me be direct with you, Warden Marz. I don't want to make things difficult for you. Just pay the taxes you owe and give me a copy of your prison's true ledger, and I will turn around and walk away!"
Marz, who had maintained composure until now, instantly turned grim upon hearing this.
He had come to David personally with the intention of downscaling the issue.
But now David was even demanding the ledger; wasn't that sending him to his death?
