Although tomorrow was Sunday, Scarlett didn't have to go to work. But it was still healthy to go to bed early.
Raymond took a simple method of penalizing Harold. As Harold was not a good person, Frank found out a lot of dirt on him more than two months ago, after which Frank had kept the dirt.
Now that Raymond asked Frank to reveal the dirt, Frank did so.
What Harold had done was similar to what Thomas had done. But Harold knew that Ryker always protected him, so what he had done was eviler.
A few years ago, Harold had drugged and raped a girl. As the girl's family was poor, Ryker forced her and her family members to keep the thing secret with money.
Now that girl was an adult. Even though her family members shut up about the matter, she still couldn't forget what had happened that day. When Frank arranged for someone to meet her, the girl just wanted Harold to get the punishment he deserved.
The girl had a video. As that day she worried that something ominous might happen, so she hid her mobile phone in a covert position to record. Though the phone failed to video the whole process, how Harold put the drug in the beverage and made her drink it was recorded. Later, when she struggled to free herself from Harold, she knocked over her phone, after which the phone only recorded the sound. This piece of evidence and some witnesses were enough to sentence Harold to prison.
But there was a long way to go, as Harold would definitely appeal. However, Frank reported that Harold killed a person due to driving under the influence and should have been jailed, but Harold made someone a scapegoat.
Frank also asked Alexander to publicize the crimes that Harold had committed, and there was extensive coverage of Harold's wicked behaviors on the Internet.
Though Harold would still be sued, he didn’t dare go out because of public opinion.
Ryker was unable to protect himself now, let alone Harold. The company under Scott's name was scrutinized. Besides, Ryker spent a colossal sum of money on the shares of Tenton, so there was a little money in his hand.
Money was needed to protect Scott’s company and Harold, but Ryker didn't have adequate money.
Ryker failed to defeat Raymond, and he was even beaten by Raymond.
Since all the things happened only a few days after that night when Raymond called Frank, Scarlett was overly impressed by Frank's work efficiency.
'Well, the work efficiency of Frank and Katherine is evenly matched.'
