Lydia pulled out her phone and shoved the surveillance video right under Ghost’s nose.
“Around eleven this morning, you moved a group of people. This boy—the one you hurt—where is he?”
Even though the camera was a bit far, you could see the blood all over Luke’s chest. It was that obvious.
Ghost glanced at the screen and his stomach twisted.
Why did it have to be him?
“I, uh, I don’t…”
“Don’t give me that. I’m taking him with me today, no matter what.”
Ghost was fuming, practically shaking, but he couldn’t make a scene with Ansel and Connor watching.
Ansel spoke up again. “Ghost, don’t make me repeat myself. Bring him out.”
Ghost stared at Ansel, completely thrown. Why was Ansel taking the outsiders’ side instead of sticking with his own people?
“Commander, some things just don’t go through me. I really don’t know where he is.”
Connor let out a cold laugh. “After the Terra Syndicate fell apart, your boss Falcon took over fast. You’re his right-hand man. I think finding one person shouldn’t be a problem for you.”
Ghost squinted, glaring at Connor. Clearly, they’d dug up everything about him.
Ansel added, “Ghost, sometimes you have to know when to back down.”
Ghost let out a strained laugh. “Commander, I really need to ask my boss about this. Give me five minutes. I’ll call him.”
Ansel paused, then nodded. “Fine. But tell him this for me—everyone here goes back today. If not, I’ll take all of you in instead.”

thank u!...
Olha a história bem boa só algumas coisas são chatas ( nesse tipo de história sempre troca as filhas pela a da empregada ou então pegam uma menina pra criar) pelo menos eles tratam a filha bem só enche o saco que até agora a Lucinda tá lá enchendo ! Fora isso tá bom Connor é um fofo a família dela a ama muito só Lucinda pra abaixar o nível do livro já era pra ter resolvido isso e fazer ela pagar mais tudo bem li um livro chinês que era parecido só algumas coisas diferentes ,ais mesma coisa tipo ela salvou o Connor no início lá ela salvava o avô dele , no chinês ela não tinha um irmão mais novo com os pais adotivos , a mãe dela tinha 2 irmãos e todos os avós estavam vivos mais história quase igual e tem coisas tipo o triângulo que lá TB tinha até a Lucinda que no chines TB ficou o livro todo aprontando só no final a família descobria e se livrava dela aí ela ia morar com o cara que ela usa pra disfarçar que não gosta do Connor aí depois ainda quase matava a irmã dele e a mãe dele que ele via como ela era...

Every chapter is missing a sentence from the end of every chapter. It’s frustrating to try guess what’s missing or said...
