Chapter 164

Reese quickly assessed the situation, realizing these people were determined to keep her there against her will. Facing the occupants of the private room, she spoke calmly. "Which one of you is Mr. Xavier?"

All eyes converged on a man seated in the shadowed corner. He looked decent, with a close-cropped hairstyle, but his appearance was marked by a scar on his forehead that gave him a fierce and menacing aura.
