Too Late to Hold Me Back novel Chapter 557

"Norman's surviving son?"

Mira asked.

Dexter West was already on death row for stabbing Leo Porter.

"Why isn't he in hiding? Isn't he afraid Roxanne will hunt him down?"

Mira frowned.

"Boss, you need money and power to put a hit on someone."

Lenny scoffed. "Roxanne and her mother are flat broke and living on Lawrence Lance's leash. She has to report her every breath to him.

Without his approval, she can't make a single move.

And Shane's old gang dissolved the second the money dried up.

Who exactly is she going to hire?"

"Fair point."

"During his escape, Norman's son was snatched by The Vane Syndicate at the border. He had to swear loyalty to them just to stay alive.

He's back in the city running an errand for them."

"What kind of errand?"

"He says Roxanne contracted the Syndicate to take you out. He's part of the hit squad."

Mira frowned.

Honestly, with her current resources, she wasn't intimidated.

While her black belt in Taekwondo wasn't world-class, Silas and Jax were elite lethal operatives.

"When?"

"Five days from now."

"Do you trust his intel?"

"I'm fifty-fifty on it, but the surveillance teams I put on him confirm his movements match the story."

"Mara looks exactly like me. Grabbing her is a hell of a lot easier than grabbing me.

Tell him we're going to pull a bait-and-switch. He'll take Mara back to the Syndicate as his bounty.

Once it's done, I'll extract him."

Of all the enemies she had crushed in Melvion City, Mira despised Mara the most.
