CHAPTER 41

Legal WarfareDerrickThe next morning, I sat on my bed as light filtered through the half-drawn blinds, casting jagged stripes across my rumpled sheets.My head pounded in rhythm with my heartbeat, a relentless drumbeat of regret from last night's whiskey.Frank's words played on a loop in my mind.. leverage, DNA test, lawyer. Each one a stepping stone toward Liam, a reminder of how far I'd let myself fall. I dragged a hand down my stubbled face, the grit of exhaustion clinging to my skin. Time wasn't just ticking; it was slipping through my fingers like sand, and I had to make quick moves.I reached for my phone, the screen blinding in the dim room. The number Frank had given me was saved under Mercer - Last Resort. I almost laughed. Everything about my life felt like a last resort these days.

The deep, pounding bass of the club’s sound system reverberated through the walls of the VIP section, drumming against my chest like a heartbeat.

It was on them. Three men sat across the dimly lit club, sitting in a shadowy booth near the back. They weren’t laughing, weren’t drinking, just staring. Their gazes were locked onto me with an intensity that made my skin crawl. The tallest of them had a face like chiseled stone, his cold eyes unblinking.
