Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem

Chapter 705

Tarquin's face darkened with a thought, and he took a harsh drag of his cigarette, his voice ice-cold, "Call the cops, cooperate with the investigation of the crash, and hand over the one inside to them as well."

Lowell and Axel looked at him, bewildered. This wasn't Tarquin's style at all.
