Chapter 327

• Night fell without a sound. On the top floor of the Caesar Hotel, Aaron Louis stood at the end of the corridor, lighting a cigarette. He hadn’t felt this relaxed in a long time. For a second, it was like he was back in Lagoon City. Those three years married into the Sallow family had been worse than living like a dog, sure—but at least he was far from Maple City and all its fights.
• Leaving was his choice too. To give Chloe Sallow a lifetime of glory, he walked out of Lagoon City again. He never thought the road ahead would be this rough.
• Aaron crushed the cigarette out.
