Diane's POV
When Maxwell finally confessed, the full scope of his crimes became clear. Drug trafficking, assassination, human trafficking.
He had been operating in the criminal underworld for decades and had built a network of corrupt officials and deadly operatives, using his position to commit crimes and then cover them up. The reason why he is always staying one step ahead of the law. The evidence against him was overwhelming.
He confessed that Liam had contacted him to connect him with Jackson, initially to shadow me. But later after Liam had ordered the hit on Sophie, he contacted me again, said Jackson was going rogue, that he was worried about his family's safety. Asked me to handle it.
"Too little, too late," Maxwell had said with a cold smile during his confession. "Jackson was already in motion."
As I listened to this revelation, I remembered Liam's desperate words during our last prison visit. I tried to stop him, Diane. I tried to save her.
