Chapter 40-Left All Alone

William’s POV:

I quickly hung up with the hacker, my irritation mounting like the rising tide. This frustrating trend was becoming an unfortunate pattern with me. The more the Caroline situation was dragged out, the more short-tempered I would get with the world around me.
