Sean was speechless—Patrick was no older than him, novelx.o with the man being in the thirties and he himself just reaching forty.

Nonetheless, Patrick took the beer and glass from Sean. While Sean stared at him, he said, ‘It’s no big deal if you die, but I’d be blamed if you died near me. I won’t be able to take the novelxo responsibility when your whole family comes for my head.”
