387 Finally Back Home

As the limousine drove off, Alex looked confused at David outside the window. When he turned to Guo, the man responded before the question was asked.

"Mr. Magnus said he preferred to walk home. Something about needing the fresh air to regain his energy."

Alex somehow doubted that was true, based on the face David was pulling as they drove away. Adding to that Jack's snide grin, Alex could guess it wasn't at David's request that they left him there.

But he was already on his way home, and was not in the mood to suddenly walk, so he did not plead for David.

'I guess being a dick eventually fucks you in the ass, doesn't it?' he thought to himself.

The drive home was not very far, as the airport they took off from was in Dorval, and not Mirabel, so they were still on the island. Night had just fallen and traffic was fluid as they drove into downtown.

As they pulled up in front of the condominium tower Alex lived in, Jack told him to wait a moment.
