Chapter 75

This was probably the toughest Bill had been since he started following James.

He was seriously worried about Kristin.

Vincent was grim as he smirked sarcastically. “Bill, you’re so worked up. You seem to be quite taken with her.”

“Buzz off.” Bill pushed the guy next to him and sat upright. “I need to see Carter.”

“He won’t see you, of course. You’ll just have to suck it up and stay put in the car until the Chamber of Commerce dinner wraps up.”

Vincent straightened his clothes, ready to get out of the car.

“Aren’t you scared Mr. Bryce will find out?” Bill glared at Vincent.

“The plan was Carter’s idea. I’m just along for the ride, Bill. What could James do to his grandpa?” Vincent chuckled and stepped out of the car.

Bill knew that the people stopping him were Carter’s guys.

York was pacing anxiously.

The Chamber of Commerce dinner was more than just a feast. It was a networking hotspot, a place to exchange resources. And it wasn’t just luxury brands showing up. Superstars and influential people from all walks of life were going to be there.

As a leading figure in various circles, Rhett was the center of attention.

If he didn’t show, it’d be a big blow to the FitzGerald Group.

“Mr. FitzGerald, I’ve got things covered here. Kristin will be fine. She’s just faking it…”

“Why don’t you try slicing your neck and see how it feels?” Rhett cut York off coldly.

York was taken aback, looking at Rhett.

Rhett seemed dead serious, genuinely concerned about Kristin..

What was scarier was that Rhett was covered in Kristin’s blood. From the break of dawn until

now, he hadn’t had a moment’s rest or even changed his clothes.

Rhett was not only a clean freak but also absolutely couldn’t stand others‘ blood.
