Love At The Wrong Table Chapter 2012-Luring the Enemy “This time, it might not be possible!” The bandit leader with the felt hat frowned. “They’ve got serious protection now, and not just one expert. If we go head–to–head, we might lose. Better to live to fight another day.

One wrong move and it could be the end of the road for them. So, despite the missed opportunity, they agreed with their leader’s cautious decision.

“Ms. Quillen, what should we do now?” Anthony asked nervously, still shaken at the thought of bandits.
