Walker didn’t say anything more. He remained slouched casually as he calmly finished his cigarette.
Faint wisps of smoke drifted through the air before quickly dissipating.
But for some reason, Daniel Hayes felt a surge of danger.
Every muscle in his body tensed.
The next second, the man who had just been lounging casually seized the initiative, lunging at Daniel Hayes with incredible speed.
Stunned, Daniel Hayes scrambled to defend himself.
But after just a few exchanges, he was shocked to discover he was no match for Walker at all!
What’s more, Walker’s fighting style was uncannily familiar!
Within fifteen moves, Daniel Hayes was on the floor. Walker planted a foot on his chest, his cold eyes boring into him. "You’re barely qualified to protect her."
Daniel Hayes’s breathing was ragged. The earlier disdain in his eyes was gone, replaced by a probing curiosity.
"Who are you, really?"
Walker lifted his foot, his tone mild. "So, will you listen to me now?"
Daniel Hayes sat up and gazed at him with a complex expression. After a long moment, he finally said, "I would never hurt Miss Reed."
"I won’t hurt her either." Walker sank back into the sofa. The violent, wild aura around him retracted, and he once again resembled a refined, noble young master.
"Now, I need to know two things. First, I want complete files on every new person who has appeared around her. Second, there’s another group of people near her, a very mysterious one. When you’re with her, you need to watch out for them."
Daniel Hayes looked crestfallen. After a long moment, he mumbled sullenly, "I understand."
But he still had to ask, looking at him, "Who are you, really?"
Walker, however, just got up and walked toward the door, clearly having no intention of answering him.
’I thought Chloe was only surrounded by ordinary people, but after these last two incidents, I realize I’ve been too careless.’
