"I'm glad to see you're alright too," Bella said, taking a deep breath, her eyes filled with concern. "The person I had you approach is extremely dangerous and ruthless. A single mistake could cost you your life."

Cece shook her head gently, her gaze resolute. "I'm not afraid. If I were, I wouldn't have accepted your request when you came to me. My brother and I grew up depending on each other. Ever since he joined Pivotage and became Christopher's bodyguard, he was constantly berated and beaten. Eventually, Christopher beat him so badly that he was left permanently disabled.
