He finally drops his fake but probably actually really very good American accent.
“Look. Liana, I know this sounds severe but that’s because it is. You’re also forgetting that I went undercover for a year to do this, and to do it slowly and secretively so that it might actually work. A year of my own life! Why would I undertake this kind of task if this degree of dedication was not required?
Henry and his family are master manipulators and the sorts of schemes they put others through, I assure you, are so many leagues beyond my own that once you know the truth, you will see that what I’ve done is a mere and insignificant white lie in comparison. I didn’t want another innocent to suffer or be pulled into these machinations. Henry knows that I’m onto him, and with the bad blood between us, if he’d known I had befriended you, he’d have put a stop to it in a moment. You were targeted because of your family. Your father and mother have influence, power… The Westons are always seeking more of that. The things they did to my family would shock you to your very soul… The impeccable, diabolical manipulations… They are masters of their craft. And I need not remind you that they were able to bring about my family’s absolute ruin without the legal and emotional binds of wedlock… If you don’t believe me, just see for yourself. It’s all here.”
He produces a folder from within his jacket, as though he’d been expecting this moment to arise at any given time, and he probably has had and carried this for months though because he’s so fucking weird. (ooc: It’s a folder of documents relating to a completely fabricated scandal between the Westons and Carlyles and how the Westons allegedly brought about the financial and reputational ruin of the Carlyles, which Monty paid a lot of money to have forged. There are printed out articles from British newspapers, and should she go online to try and look for these things, I feel like somehow…somehow, with all his money…Monty has that covered, and you can legitimately find results…Somehow… Or something. You can help me decide the actual details ooc because who the f knows? Not I. And then this will just be like. WTF when she also finds out Monty was the best man, but that could make for an especially weird revenge f***……IDK. I’m flyin by the seat of my pants. DETAILS TO BE ANNOUNCED AT A LATER DATE….. /ooc)
“It was all very hush-hush, people being paid off not to talk or leak information and whatnot, on both ends, which I’m sure you can understand. I’m sure your parents have done similar things before out of necessity. It’ll take you a while to go through everything… Once you’re done with that, I can proceed with my tale, and hopefully then you’ll be able to see things more clearly with the insight this will provide you, and we’ll get into Henry’s ex-flame Lorelei and why I went about things the way I did. You’re welcome to do this at my residence, should you like, or take it with you and then call on me once you’re ready to follow up. I’m truly sorry for the pain all of this will cause but… it will be nothing in comparison to the pain you’ll experience if you don’t find out before it’s too late. You’re a smart girl and you’ll begin to piece it all together once you learn more of the facts, starting with the ones in there.”
“I think I know you well enough to know you know what you’re doing, giving this to a psych major with a lawyer mom. I’ll be triple checking the legitimacy of this.”
“Henry’s been... Distant lately. Do you know anything about that?”
