What the hell was happening?
“Still not telling the truth? Fine then, Aiden…”
“Yes!”
“Invite them in for a cup of tea.”
Connor sounded so relaxed, like this was nothing. But for Leopard and his crew, it was basically a death sentence.
“No, sir, please! I’ll talk, I’ll talk!”
In the Capital’s elite social circles, nobody dared cross Connor. Tonight, they’d messed with the wrong person. If Connor actually took them away, they’d be lucky to know how they died.
Aiden shot Leopard a glare. “For real? Are you gonna talk or not? Stop dragging it out!”
Leopard flinched and blurted out, “It was the Gibson family! They wanted us to, um, invite Miss Norwood back for tea. That’s why we came for her, I swear, we never meant any harm!”
Aiden heard this and immediately kicked Leopard so hard he went sprawling.
“Invite? You block our car, smash the windows, threaten us, and call that an invitation?”
Leopard scrambled back to his knees, his voice shaking, almost on the verge of tears. “Connor, please, we just wanted to scare Miss Norwood. Honestly, we never meant to hurt her.”
This was all the Gibson family’s plan. They wanted Lydia to be terrified first, then they’d take her away and “talk” to her.
Connor’s voice was cold. “You’d better spill their whole plan right now. I don’t have a lot of patience.”
If it was anyone else, Leopard could’ve pretended he knew nothing and never ratted out the Gibsons. But this was Connor. Everyone knew what he was capable of. If they wanted to survive, they had to tell the truth.
