Chapter 143: He Died Back Then

"I don't know his full name, but I already know the first," she said before sitting down on the couch and leaning back.

Mason and I sat side by side while she took a seat across from us.

She crossed one leg over the other. Then, she pulled out a piece of paper from the brown envelope she'd brought with her earlier.

My gaze fixed on it, and my brow arched as I noticed the long list of names written on the sheet. I couldn't decipher its meaning right away.

"I don't need that," he replied, his grin widening. "I like what I'm seeing right now."

A shiver ran down my spine at his words. When I looked at him, it was as though his bloodlust had been awakened, and he was reveling in it. Would he grow fond of this feeling, or was it just temporary?

He can't stay involved in this. Even if I didn't act, Simon would definitely kick him out if he learned about everything that happened today.
