Chapter 128: Asking for the impossible
Inspector Fin didn’t know why Maverick would want to know about the Half-heart organization. Those evil creatures that treat ladies with zero respect would certainly not be Maverick’s cup of tea because Maverick respects women more than anything else.
Maverick didn’t respond and just continued to sip his drink in silence. Telling his friends about what he knows would rob them on the bad side. Matt has to treat Jeslyn before anything else and as for Fin, the stubborn idiot might just complicate things.
Also, Jeslyn is too weak, both in health and heart. She needs to shed that softness before other matters. The battle in front of her does not require her to have any form of weakness.
Maverick downed his drink, lost in thought, and didn’t hear what Inspector Fin was saying until he was tapped.
"Hey, what are you thinking? This is weird. You have never lost yourself before."
Maverick gave him a flitting glance before he continued with his drink.
"I was upstairs when I heard your sister causing a ruckus. That sister of yours is so brazen that I couldn’t help but chuckle when I heard her words."
"So?"
"Why don’t you let her find peace in your comfort? She was not wrong though. She did nothing bad, the fault is your mother’s. Why are you punishing your innocent sister?"
