A Vow of Deception, A Vow of Revenge novel Chapter 140

Tyson wasn't exactly weak, but up against two trained bodyguards, he didn't stand a chance.

All he could do was watch helplessly as Winona climbed into the car.

"Let go of me! Get your hands off!" Tyson shouted, his temper flaring. "Do you have any idea who I am? I'm—"

Before he could finish, he caught sight of an elegant woman walking her dog nearby, glancing over with curiosity.

He immediately clamped his mouth shut, ducked his head, and didn't dare utter another word.

Winona gave a wry smile. "It's nothing. Just ran into a mad dog on my way here—it slowed me down a bit."

Veronica immediately caught on. "Tyson?"

"Yeah."

Winona gave her a quick rundown of what had just happened.

Veronica, never one to hide her feelings, slammed her hand on the table. "He actually showed up at your place? Has he no shame?"
