He kidnapped my secretary, tortured her, and tried to get away with it." Chantelle fumed.

"You had every right to fight back, but you had no right to kill him, do you understand?" Andrew's voice sharpened with impatience.

"Ms.

Garcia, that's enough! So what if I killed him? The guy came stomping into my space, and I'm supposed to just roll over and play dead?" Chantelle let out a bitter laugh and hissed, "Andrew, Mr.
