Chapter 557

"Are you here for the game? Got your ticket yet?" Conrad changed the subject smoothly.

"Not yet. You got one to spare? I'll buy it off you," I replied, not about to play hard to get. It's silly to take the long way round when there's a shortcut. Conrad chuckled, "Got one, but it's not for sale."
