It was close to two am when we got to Jaxton Carter's apartment. The place was deserted and there were no lights from the house.
"The bastard has run, or he is operating from Lobo's house," I seethed.
"It will not be a good idea to go there, "Conri stated and agreed to his sentiments.
We turned around to leave and there, standing before us, was Zineb Aria.
"Hi," she spoke up.
"What do you want?" Conri growled and his eyes blazed at her.
" Lucian, can we have a chat? "Zineb's eyes teared up.
"You are a pathological liar," I spoke up. ' Why would you have a chat with me? You sold your nephew to the Yakuza. "
"I needed a way out and I blundered. Please, I need to talk to you in private" Her eyes were wide and full of tears.
"Fine," I said and heard the intake of breath from Conri. He growled and walked away as I watched his hands fist at his sides.
"Thank you. " She smiled as the tears kept falling.
