A surge of nameless wrath flared within him. Amelia was his woman -- who had the audacity to commit a robbery in broad daylight in a restaurant their own territory?
Daniel Cooper was so furious, he had to take another stomach pill.
If a single hair on his woman's head was harmed, he would make the offender's life worse than death.
Nathan Taylor, who was attending to him, took notice of his boss's ominously cold facade and cautiously asked, "Mr. Cooper? Should I book a flight right now?"
Ignoring his question, Daniel extended his hand, "Hand me over the phone. I can't leave at the moment. You go back immediately and figure out what transpired."
When Mason Hawkins received the call, he was already sound asleep.
He had stayed up all night playing dice with Amelia Cooper, followed by a full day at the hospital. Overcome by exhaustion, he had just settled down for some hard-earned rest when he was woken up.
He was beyond irritated, "Are you siblings tag-teaming to wear me down?"
