Perry, with an I-told-you-so tone said, "About twice what it would've cost to repair it." He paused to let that sink in and then gave the figures, "Lex Luthor cleared a cool seventy-five mil on the deal."
Jimmy said, in an awed tone, "That's motive. He's nailed."
Henderson should be proud of all of them, this is good old fashioned detective work. Nicely done chapter. You nailed it!!!
