Chapter 82

Parker decided to drop by unannounced in the suburban club to check on his property. His long strides carried him leisurely down the path, his rnind barely registering the task Ludwik had mentioned earlier.

However, as he passed a certain private lounge, a woman’s cry echoed from within, a sound oddly familiar.

The refined glint behind his rimless glasses sharpened with curiosity.

What a coincidence, he mused.

Parker signaled to his men with a smirk that did not quite reach his eyes.

With a forceful kick, the door was flung open.

The dimly lit interior was spacious. Parker sauntered in, pulling back the curtains to reveal a chaotic scene on the bed, his eyes flashing coldly. He glanced at the scantily clad woman screaming for help, then leisurely removed his suit jacket and tossed it down at her.

“Pa–Parker.” Tiana looked up, her small face a mask of terror and confusion.

Parker’s men quickly overpowered the three thugs.

His cigarette dangled from his lips as he strolled over and planted his foot on the waistband of one scoundrel’s jeans. The cultured outline of his face, accentuated by his glasses, contrasted with the sinister aura emanating from beneath those lenses.

Tiana watched as his cigarette slowly lowered, lighting the crotch of the three men on fire, his foot pinning them down as they began to wail in agony.

Meanwhile, he did not even flinch the slightest.

Parker finally lifted his foot only when the smell of singed cloth filled the air.

Tiana was paralyzed with shock, the threat she had faced moments before from almost getting raped paling in comparison to the dread now gripping her.

Staring at the man’s sophisticated profile, she trembled. Was this man a demon?

The thugs, their jeans in tatters, crawled away in terror.

Parker stood up, his hand nonchalantly pocketed, and glanced at the bed. Frowning, he scolded his men, “Turn around.”
