Chapter 527

“What the fuck? That scumbag is out?”

He was so close to her that he heard every word Aaron had said, crystal clear.

“No way Avery is ruthless, always goes for the kill, never leaves loose ends. How did Byron get bailed out? Is there something wrong with the evidence? Evadne felt her blood go from boiling to ice–cold, her shoulders shaking with rage.

Thaddeus rose silently, his warm, large hand wrapping around her waist, offering her a silent comfort through his touch. “The evidence was solid. If it hadn’t been, the precinct wouldn’t have issued an arrest warrant for Byron.”

Aaron’s voice was hoarse with anger and frustration. “But now, those girls who were supposed to testify against Byron have changed their tune like they got their stories straight in private!
