The Billionaire’s Maid Bride (Flanagan and Allison) novel Chapter 587

Darian was puzzled as he made his way to the Red Jack Club. He hadn’t been involved in any trouble lately, so what could this be about?

Upon entering the VIP room, he saw Konnor with a young man by his side. It was a face he didn’t recognize yet seemed oddly familiar. Approaching Konnor, he asked, “Konnor, you wanted to see me about something?”

Konnor flashed a smile. “This is Mr. Pete. He’s looking for you.”

Pete got straight to the point, “I’m trying to track someone down.”

“If it’s someone on these streets, I know it,” Darian boasted. “Who are you looking for?”

“Robbie,” Pete replied.

Darian’s expression shifted at the mention of the name.

Pete noticed the change. “What’s the matter, Darian? Is this a tough ask?”

Darian was silent for a moment.

Konnor prodded, “Darian, what’s going on, man?”

Darian confessed, “Konnor, you don’t know the half of it. Robbie owes me one hundred thousand. I had him cornered, but then someone vouched for him. They made me promise not to spill his whereabouts, and I agreed. A man’s word is his bond around here.”

And to make matters more complicated, Darian was under Hughes’ thumb.

Pete offered a deal, “Name your price, Darian. I’ll make it worth your while.”
