Chapter 1681

Not far away, a car was parked on the side of the road. Inside, Garrett looked over at Zavier with concern etching his features. “Zavier, you sure you don’t want to step in?”

Zavier remained silent, unresponsive.

Garrett pressed on, “Zavier, like it or not, Skyler is your fiancée. What if something happens to her?”

Zavier lit a cigarette, took a long drag, and exhaled slowly before he replied, “If she can’t handle this, how’s she gonna hold her own with the Riveras?”

Garrett’s eyes widened in disbelief. “Zavier, those thugs out there are notorious bullies from the Capital. No one gets away from them unscathed. What if Skyler gets hurt? Can you live with yourself?”

Still, Zavier said nothing, just smoked his cigarette.
