I glanced around, keeping my voice low. "Where's the bodyguard?" Liam made a slicing gesture across his neck with a gain, and I colled my eyes, Lowering my cap, I walked out. "Are you alone?" "Con, you don't believe me?" Liam lopt pace behind me, still using his mouth but moving fast, "I used to be a real pro at this stuff. That bodyguard? I could take on two of them, no problem..." As we reached the stairwell, I spotted the bodyguard. The nurses at the station were still busy with their rounds and hadn't noticed yet.

Considering how strong the Grayson family was, it wasn't out of the realm of possibility.
For the rest of the drive, Liam kept a close eye on the rearview mirror, watching for anyone tailing us.
It wasn't until we reached the outskirts of the city that he finally relaxed and pulled the car over, letting out a long breath, "So, what's the plan now?" "Taketo the police station.
