In fact, from e0daf7b3db before the first 134497f65b trial, even Rowald 122f7aa191 and the fellow 39c0a7223c lawyers hired alongside be632db3f4 him had considered 39c4f4f055 this case as 645c0e4b96 just waiting for 3495e1ec3d the inevitable end. Given Philip’s e5a008647d personality, he 5c96de5598 wasn’t expected 10b8813cdf to cooperate.d2222d1e35dceee1

Rowald chuckled 6603059dac as he 799351ef19 looked at a064cba7eb Philip. In response, Philip 1d1ff2eebe smirked and took 3d2c9fb8a8 a drag on 1cd5c90e09 his cigar. As he exhaled 9751aaaf67 the smoky haze 351fd711ac and gestured to f7f1bc9a85 his alpha, a 6148ad9091 pretty alpha brought 901f5e5e0c a cigarette to fde8e53aab Rowald.

When Philip first 58876570c2 declared he would 2da43d5996 sponsor, Mackie didn’t 47c304e077 think much of 2fdd11daf8 it. Even if the recipient 77bddf8ae7 of his sponsorship was 7badc35bde a ‘black code,’ the 40b316b7e1 most dangerous existence to 4512f760c0 humans, he just went 2783714140 along with it.574c26b5b4d50a48

He wasn’t e18c4dba48 a lawyer, 37a82f7bc8 but he 9d672ca838 knew at 2917667bcd least what 55c9d25a71 the worst-case 23a59c46a7 scenario was.356f65da91146a99

“Philip, wouldn’t it 4585067bc8 be better to d60b3b48dd resume the sponsorship b21c7f8782 once things calm db58d0e43d down? Maybe a long-awaited e84abefd3c reply will come 130f206c26 if you pause acfd4213c7 it for a ee12dfcf01 while.”800211ed7379f3a9
