His brows shoot up a little when he sees me. But then, his mouth twists into a salacious, evil smile.
“Well, well, well,” he murmurs, undressing me with his eyes. “I was wondering if it’d be you who waltzed in here trying to save?—”
“You gonna show me how fast you can turn my internship into a serious career, Governor?”
His smirk shatters.
Hall knows he’s fucked the second I say. And It. Is. Fucking. Sweet to watch his whole world crumble in front of my eyes.
The Governor goes pale as I walk over to him, my gaze eviscerating him as I plant my knuckles on the edge of his desk.
“Look, Ms. Yamaguchi?—”
“Shut the fuck up.”
His skin turns gray as I snarl the words, and his eyes widen in terror.
“You raped me,” I hiss.
“Now, Ms. Yamaguchi, we don’t want to get into a he-said, she-said?—”
“Yes, well, the she in this scenario said NO, and the he said I DON’T CARE and went ahead and did it anyway!!”
His bottom lip quivers. “Ms. Yama?—”
“In case my husband wasn’t clear enough when he tried to have this discussion with you the first time, let me make myself crystal clear now,” I snarl at him. “You are done, you disgusting fuck. Finished. You resign today, you leave the race, and you dis-a-fucking-pear. Permanently. You let Gabriel out of that holding cell, and obviously, you do not press charges against him.”
Hall’s mouth flapping open and shut like a toad is deeply satisfying to see.
“I—you—I mean…”
“Do it. Now. Or I release the recording my young friend just made in here.” I smile coldly. “You know, the pretty girl you just tried to expose yourself to. You and your minions managed to bury what you did to me under so much shit that it’s hearsay. But taken in conjunction with this? I don’t think there’s a judge in the city who wouldn’t reopen those files and take a closer look.”
I turn and march for the door.
“And what exactly is stopping me from bringing you down with me?” Hall snaps at my back. “I can make sure the press tears you limb from fucking limb. Do you know how easily I can spin what happened in my favor? Do you know how many girls walk into this office dying to get on their knees and?—”
“And do you, Governor,” I say thinly, turning to face him. “But before you do, do you know how old I am?”
He frowns.
“More to the point, do you recall how old I was when you assaulted me?”
I was nineteen. But from the sheer terror on his face, I’m guessing he’s suddenly realizing he has no idea how young I was.
“You have one hour to announce your resignation and get my husband out of that cell, you piece of shit,” I growl. “Oh, and it’s not Ms. Yamaguchi. It’s Mrs. Black, fuck-wad.”
Without another word, I turn and march out the door. Hall is still standing there looking like he’s about to piss himself.
Taylor answers the second I call her. “He’s got one hour to make good,” I mutter. “If he doesn’t resign and release Gabriel by then, leak Amber’s footage to the press.”
“With pleasure,” Taylor mutters. “And if he does do as he should?”
My lips curl dangerously.
“Leak it anyway.”
Taylor laughs. “That’s my girl!”
