Chapter 1080: Liars

Meanwhile...

"What now...?" Angel grumbled, driving very slowly with the beams off, following Patricia.

After she ran away from the Miller estate, Angel told himself it wasn't worth it. He had a long day today, and he shouldn't waste his time getting his hoodie back. Zoren Pierson was his employer, and Penny was his boss.
