Landon Brooke looked at the woman before him with a cold face as she presumptuously spouted her tea talk, nearly losing control and wanting to reach out and strangle her, forcing her to swallow back her words.
He regretted a bit that he hadn't simply spread a message in the underworld, offering a hefty sum for the job.
Those people would surely have taken the person away quickly, subjected her to torture, and if she didn't talk, they'd simply break her, either leaving her disabled or disfigured!
Wouldn't that have been more direct and straightforward?
If he were still in California, he definitely would have considered it.
However, now that he was back, many things couldn't be handled so cavalierly. He didn't want even a hint of a stain on his and Tiana's life, which was why he had resorted to this strategy.
But now, the result was that he had to endure this woman's wild provocations, her every word insinuating against Tiana!
