“Then he’s the one.” Abraham said coldly.
Abel nodded in agreement. Louis as <b>a </b>good candidate. Most importantly–he was ruthless
He might seemid–back, but anyone who’d watched the Parker family’s internal war would know–he was more than ruthless enough.

“Abraham,”
“I’ming to get <b>you</b>.”
The moment he spoke to Ste<b>, </b>all the coldness in his voice disappeared, <b>reced </b>by gentle warmth.

Her curiosity kicked in. “Then hurry up and get me.”
Food that was both delicious and fun? Who could say no to that? Ste certainly couldn’t.
