Chapter 45 Xliv - Patrick

• After Sophie told me what Magie had heard, we had to act quickly. Cris divided his men into two groups, some disguised as the group that would go to Alejandro's house. The others were going with my father and Cris to the hideout of that snake. If she was there, it would be a brutal attack, but she was probably still at Sophie's uncle's house, so she would be surprised when she arrived home.
• "Patrick, you stay here. We don't want to put you at risk or let that bitch know what's about to happen," Cris said for the thousandth time as I insisted on going with the other group to the house where Sophie was.
• And I had to stay there, watching them leave to protect my wife while I stayed home like a useless person.
