Chapter 60: THE WRATH OF FRANK BLACKWOOD
Layla was silent for a moment. Harlow giving a statement about her family, the biggest family in Hawkhalls would really skyrocket their company better than before. The Blackwoods are people who are not on the news or in any magazine unless Frank has made more money or achieved a goal.
Having juicy news about the things happening in the family was a huge deal.
But Lay didn’t feel like it was right to treat her best friend and family that way, no matter what had happened. Family feuds and conflicts should remain in the family and stay that way. They could resolve their conflict or decide to be enemies forever, but no one deserves the right to know.
"Harl, are you sure you want this? Your family is known as the biggest family in all of Hawkhalls, tarnishing their image will not do anything good for you." Lay tried to talk her friend out of the drastic decision she was about to make. This wasn’t necessary at all.
"This wouldn’t cause any damage as the one they have already done to me. What about me? What about my name that’s been tarnished by my family every day?" Harlow smiled. "I’m always the scapegoat for their propaganda and schemes. I’m done with them. If you will not publish my confessions, I might as well go to another news company to publish it."
"You know that’s not what meant."
"Then take my confession Lay," Harlow demanded and Layla quickly started interviewing her. After the interview, Lay escorted Harlow out of the building. She couldn’t believe everything Harlow said. How can Frank be so heartless to his child?
Harlow was like the kicking bag in the family. The stupid animal who gets to do all of the work while others take glory for it.
"I want it published today Lay. This morning even, don’t take anything out of everything I said." Layla nodded. She watched her friend step back into her car and drove away.
