Zeke appeared deep in thought. "Are you sure that person and I have never had any contact or dealings at all?" From Zeke's experience, anyone trying to harm him or his family usually had some connection to him and it was always a bad one.
He knew he was the type of man whose words could be as sharp as a knife, often wounding others. He wondered whether this Perez was a victim of his harsh words or an enemy from the business world.
Nolan remembered their investigation into Mr. Perez and said, "Not with Mr. Perez, sir. But his wife seems to be connected to you." They realized it wasn't Mr. Perez himself who had ties to Zeke, but his wife. The news surprised them a bit.
Zeke frowned, raising an eyebrow. He didn't like being linked to a woman. "His wife? What do you mean she's connected to me?" he asked, annoyed.
