Brian’s gaze was icy as he addressed Darrion, “If you wish to keep a secret, refrain from acting on it. Given I’ve learned aboutBeal, I’m certainly capable of bringing the truth to light. Here’s your chance to come clean. | suggest you take it.”
His tone was a powerful deterrent, causing a shiver to run through Darrion.

Brian scoffed, “You're quite the resolute one. You have two days to ponder. If you opt for silence, I'll demonstrate which holdsmore influence, a butler or the CEO of Hughes Group. Remember, Skrix may not be my territory, but disciplining a fewindividuals is quite trivial to me.”
Observing Darrion’s pallor, Brian’s voice grew gentler.
