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.

Tarquin wasn't one to mingle with the police-not out of fear, distrust, or anything. He just lacked the patience. He found dealing with the bureaucratic red tape of law enforcement too tedious!

"I promised Elysia," Tarquin flicked the cigarette ash and explained briefly.
