The Killer Queen by Noella Briony

Chapter 100

Chapter 100

Thorpe was on edge, eyeing Palmer with a mix of suspicion and guardedness,

The moment their gazes locked, Thorpe could tell Palmer wasn’t messing around.

“You’ll get your man, but you’ve got to guarantee his safety.”

“I’ve never seen Mr. Thorpe give a hoot about anyone’s safety before. After all, you’d throw one brother under the bus just to get treatment for the other.”

That jab hit Thorpe right where it hurt, and he swung his fist at Palmer in a flash!

Before his fist could make contact, Noella chimed in coolly, “Lay a hand on him, and your

brother can kiss my help goodbye.”

Palmer’s eyes softened, a tender smile gracing his lips as they misted over with a swirl of soft blue.

The girl finally started to show some concern for him, remarkable!

Thorpe’s punch hung in the air, mere inches from Palmer’s face!

He looked back and forth between Palmer and Noella, confused,

“Isn’t the Phantom Surgeon Lunaris one of Obelisk Organization’s own? Since when did you cozy up with Abyssal Organization’s Vocalist? If you can leave Obelisk, why not check out Cerulean Whale? Whatever Abyssal’s offering you, I’ll double it. No, triple!”

Thorpe was convinced that Noella had sided with Palmer, likely because he snagged that consultation order Lunaris had posted on the deep web.

Thorpe scanned the area and saw no sign of Obelisk Organization’s crew. That meant Phantom Surgeon Lunaris was flying solo on this gig, with no ties to Obelisk.

“Phantom Surgeon, joining Cerulean Whale will be the best move you’ll ever make. Name your price, and I’ll meet any demand! If Wise Fool of Obelisk knew his man got poached by Vocalist, I wonder how he’d feel. But here at Cerulean Whale, we’ve got your back for sure!”

Palmer snorted with a sneer. “If you can’t even snag a consultation order, what makes you think you can outdo Abyssal?”

Just mentioning the consultation order got Thorpe steaming!

He wasn’t a regular in Harmonia Country, so he was clueless about a lot of stuff here. Last time he tried to secure the order, his internet crapped out on him!
