Chapter 0275
I stare at the papers in front of me, but the words are nothing but a blur. I couldn’t make sense of any of it, mainly because I couldn’t focus on shit.
My thoughts were back home with Ava. I couldn’t help but worry, even though I had bodyguards
protecting the whole compound.
What if something happened and I wasn’t there to protect her?
That was my biggest worry right now. I failed her the last time, when she was shot. I was just afraid of
something like that happening to her again.
My phone rings, and I dive for it. I’m disappointed when I see Reaper’s name flash. I bought Ava a new
phone a couple of days ago, and I was hoping that it was her calling.
With a sigh, I answer, “What?”
“What’s got your underwear in a twist?” he grumbles back.
