Alex once again settled into the bedroom downstairs, after Joanna and Violet headed upstairs.
He was exhausted as a result of not taking his short naps in the office due to Joanna's attempted kidnapping but just as he closed his eyes to sleep, his phone beeped.
He was reluctant but since it was his personal phone, that meant it could be a potential emergency.
Picking up the phone hesitantly and looking at the screen reluctantly, he saw a text message from Aiden. 'Alex, the Munchinos are following you and are close to your house.'
Alex's drowsiness vanished instantly as he read the message. He quickly replied, 'Where are you?'
Aiden had assigned someone to protect Alex, so upon hearing about the pursuit, he had already left his house without informing Alex immediately.
The Munchinos were a notorious gang known for terrorizing families in Chicago. Years ago, they had stolen from the Kings' warehouse and vanished without a trace.
