Chapter 542: Shedding All Pretense, Do You Dare?

"Walker Grant, don’t you care about your woman’s life?"

The moment the call connected, William Quinn went straight to the threat. "Call your men off. If anything happens to me, my people will stop at nothing to kill Chloe Reed. They’ll carry out that order first, and only then will they scatter."

Walker Grant’s tone was chilling. "Are you really declaring war on me?"

William Quinn scoffed. "You’re the one who lied to me first. You knew damn well I’ve been looking for her, yet she was right there with you. You all hid her from me, conspired to trick me. So how can you blame me for dropping the pretenses?"

Walker Grant stated coolly, "Fine. Since you don’t want to live in peace, then you’ll spend the rest of your days on the run."

With that, he hung up the phone.

William Quinn cursed under his breath and tried to contact his men abroad, only to find that many of them were unreachable.

He knew Walker Grant had power abroad, but their forces had never clashed before, so he’d never understood its full extent. Now, he suddenly realized Walker Grant was not as simple as he seemed on the surface.
