Larkin, as per usual, woke up at six on the dot

He usually spent his mornings with Erica, dealing with work stuff.

But today, after waking up and giving Erica a peck on the forehead, he grabbed his phone and headed downstairs.

Even if people. with power and influence come to me, I won’t let him off the hook easily.”
