“Wynter, I don’t like this.”

“What’s he going to do, Asher? Kidnap him? He could also be a egocentric, self-serving asshole, however he’s not a psycho, and he’s not harmful.”

He huffs out a breath, his fingers on his lean hips, and he nods. “You higher say no to Dr. Horowitz.”

“Proper again atcha, participant. Now go get on the market earlier than this turns into apparent.”
