Chapter 353

Letting Victoria go with him would be like tossing a lamb to the wolves. By the time McNeil had his way with her, it'd be far too late for regrets.

Curtis knew all too well how dangerous McNeil could be around women. Never mind his terrifyingly powerful background-the way he lavished gifts and resources on women was enough to make anyone wary.
