Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover by Rosa Winters

Chapter 1053

Grant didn't flinch. His face stayed cold and unreadable, eyes giving nothing away. He lifted his chin as a group of men in black filed in behind him, dragging a man in restraints.

"That's the guy Wayne's after, right?" Grant asked, voice flat.

Kash's expression darkened. The man they dragged in was the very convict they'd purposely let slip away-a piece in a plan that had already gone sideways.

Grant spoke again, his tone cool. "Ran into him on my way back. Figured he was the one Wayne wanted?"

Kash stared at Grant, suspicion simmering beneath his calm exterior. He knew the truth: their operation had failed. The plan was to hit at dawn, catch everyone off guard, and walk away with the upper hand. But now it was obvious-they'd been set up from the moment they stepped onto Rooster Hill.

He'd hoped, worst-case, they'd come up empty. Even then, they could just grab the fugitive and get out-no one would get hurt. But Chloe and Connor had vanished. They had to be trapped somewhere in this place, and Kash didn't have a clue what Grant's real goal was, or what he'd do to them.

Kash's voice was sharp. "Grant, hand them over."

For the first time, Grant almost smiled, but it was a mocking twist of his lips. "Isn't this the guy Wayne wanted? If not, then who are you really looking for?"

Kash cut to the chase. "Chloe and Connor. They're consultants with our team. They disappeared inside your house."

Grant shrugged, the picture of indifference. "If they came with you, how is it my problem they're missing? I just got back myself."
