It was a debt of gratitude, and a bond of brotherhood. He would die for Tarquin, so how could he ever betray him?
Unless Tarquin went down the wrong path, betrayed everything they stood for.
“And what if I don’t let you down?” Tarquin asked.
“Then I could never betray you,” Lowell replied.
Tarquin’s brow furrowed as he gazed out the window, murmuring, “That’s right. If there’s no disappointment, why would there be betrayal?”
Lowell, who understood him best, watched him with a pang of sympathy in his heart.
He knew Tarquin was asking about the mystery man…
Lowell thought for a moment before saying, “Betrayal without disappointment can only mean one thing: that person was born rotten. They just hid it so well that everyone was fooled into thinking they were a good person.”
“It’s like the fable of the Farmer and the Viper. You can give a snake all the warmth in the world, but it’s still going to bite you in the end.”
“Some people live by loyalty and honor, while others would sell their own mother for a dime. It’s just how the world works.”
“But it’s definitely not worth grieving over one evil person.”
Whatever relationship the mystery man once had with Kendrick or Tarquin, he was evil now.
He was into smuggling, drugs, murder, arson—you name it. He was pure evil.
“By the way, Tarquin, there’s something I don’t get,” Lowell said. “I remember he loved cats, but the mystery man is a cat abuser. How do you explain that?”
Tarquin’s brow tightened. After a moment, he said, “I’ll add that to my list of questions. When I find the 8th generation virus and go to confront him, I’ll ask him to his face.”
Worry flickered in Lowell’s eyes. Confronting the mystery man meant a fight to the death.
But not confronting him was impossible.
The mystery man was a thorn in Tarquin’s side that had to be removed, and it had to be Tarquin himself who did it to quench his rage.

At three in the afternoon, the private jet landed at the Border City airport.
