Chapter 1902

Melvin said, "Don't worry about it. Mark's not an unreasonable guy. I ain't gonna argue with him. All I gotta do is show him the evidence and tell him the situation. I don't care what he thinks after that. I'm not gonna argue with the guy."

Matthew nodded. He was worried Melvin might get into an argument and heat things up. That would be reckless. "Tiger will stay in the city. Call him if you need anything," Matthew said.

Melvin waved his hands. "That kitten? He should hide in Brittany's manor. The Damrons ain't gonna kill me, but they sure as hell will go after everyone else."

Tiger bellowed, "I'm not scared of death!"

Melvin glanced at him. "I know ya ain't, but there's no need for unnecessary sacrifice. All I'll do is talk to that old git. I don't need ya to do anything. Don't need to follow me."
