Chapter 28: DO YOU WANT TO SEE HIM?

Two men were bleeding profusely on the floor, when Knox left the room to take a phone call, as he didn't want the caller to hear their whimpers and screams of agitation and anguish.

He let those two jerks be handled by his men.

"Yes, love…" his voice turned gentler and the murderous aura that surrounded him instantly dissipated, as if he was just a normal human being, though he was a far cry from any human.

Knox was silent for a moment, listening to whatever the caller said, as a soft smile tugged on the corners of his lips. It went without saying that he loved to hear her voice.

"I am afraid I can't go," he said tenderly and listened to the whining voices from the other end of the call. "But, I will try. I will be there as soon as possible."
