Chapter 0630

“Peter… What else are you planning to do?”

“Nothing. Just wait. My time, and Marcus’s time, is coming. He and I will have to pay for what we’ve done. But that, dear brother, won’t affect you,” Peter said, placing a hand on Maximus’s shoulder.

“Damn it, Peter! What the hell are you going to do?” Maximus demanded, his frustration boiling over.

There won’t be a corner where people don’t know who the Palmer, Bartz, and Levett truly are.”

Maximus’s jaw tightened. “What did you do to Alexia? Did you kill her?”

That woman was driving me insane. Lucius believes someone might come after her one day, but it won’t be me. Alexia’s life is punishment enough- she’s a quadriplegic. Killing her would be an act of mercy, and she doesn’t deserve that.”
