Chapter 203: Is He in trouble?

It was just like that. James Wendover faded from people's minds soon enough. After remaining the talk of the town for weeks on end, he was no longer in their minds, as if he had never been to start with.

Presque was also somewhat forgotten… at least in the eyes of the masses, but behind the walls of the prisons, he was living a hellish nightmare that he had never in his entire life dreamt of. All of these two men's life choices had led them down that path, and they had no one to blame.
