The Wolf of Los Angeles

Chapter 31: Every Local is a Treasure Trove

Edward might not excel in everything, but when it came to running, he was as quick as a rabbit. Reaching the car, he leaped into the driver’s seat and shouted to Hawk, who was following, “Hurry up!”

Hawk got into the passenger seat and tossed Edward the keys.

Edward started the Mondeo, spinning it around before racing toward the park exit.

Hawk kept a close watch behind them. After several sharp turns, seeing no one in pursuit, he said, “Relax, we’ve lost them.”

Edward exhaled heavily, calming his breath. He took off the camera slung around his neck, pulled into a parking lot, and parked. “Boss, are all our jobs this intense? That skinny guy pulled a gun!”

Hawk brushed it off. “It was just a taser. I handled him easily.”

Edward patted his chest. “I thought you’d run off.”

“Do I look like that kind of person?” Hawk replied grandly. “I said I’d back you up, and I did. You work for me—I won’t let anything happen to you.”
