The man stared at Kai, his face pale, his hands trembling as if he had seen a ghost.
The weight of the detective's words bore down on him, crushing his confidence and exposing his darkest secrets.
At that moment His heart started pounding in his chest, a relentless rhythm that mirrored the fear coursing through his veins.
"How… how do you know this?" he stammered, his voice barely above a whisper. His eyes darted to the floor, as if searching for an answer that didn't exist. "No one knows… no one except—"
Then Kai tilted his head, his piercing gaze locked onto the man like a predator sizing up its prey. "Except your boss," Kai interrupted, his voice calm but laced with an edge sharp enough to cut through steel.
"You think your secrets are safe, but secrets have a way of finding their way to me."
Hearing what Kai just said.
