“This is love at first sight, you know,” Abe said with a mocking smile. “You’re putting me in a difficult position here. She is… occupied for the night. Would you like me to show you our selection of girls?”

Ashton looked mutinous.

Abe had touched a nerve.

Abe was openly taunting Ashton now with his laugh. I was desperately looking for something that I could use as a weapon.

Abe narrowed his eyes as he let out a cold laugh. “Mr. Fuller, you’ve come prepared!”
