Chapter 429
Carlos's POV
We climbed the staircase in heavy silence, Robert's storming steps leading the way with suspicious resolve, sparks consuming his dark eyes.
The second we stepped into his main office and the door clicked shut behind us, he spun around with blinding speed, his massive palm slamming onto my arm with a grip that nearly crushed my bones.
Locking his steel eyes into mine, he hissed out a sharp, lethal warning:
"You forget everything about me agreeing to sell Julie to you... Do you hear me?!"
I yanked my arm from his grip with full force, brushing off my sleeve with calm disdain before staring him down:
"Robert... I'm not a little boy to fall for such a cheap, pathetic trick."
A harsh, emotionless smile touched his thin lips. He took a step back, shaking his head with cold detachment.
"Very well."
