Jack said flatly. Eric nearly exploded. "The hell is wrong with you? Do you not know who | am? I'm Eric Humphrey!

influence. But now the Southern Martial Union is under the McCormicks. The man in charge isn't Mr. Thornton
anymore; it's the McCormicks. So let's be real...
You're nothing but a stray dog." Jack leaned forward, his voice dripping with contempt." Everyone in Goldridge's

of courtesy. Otherwise, | could have you thrown out in seconds." Athis cold snort, the curtain behind his sofa
snapped open, and dozens of assault rifles suddenly aimed at Eric. Eric froze, his face locked in place. Rage
burned through him, mixed with humiliation so sharp it was unbearable. Jack leaned back and opened his mouth

He turned to Jack instead. "Big Jack, Eric is young, hot-headed. Don't hold it against him. You said one million? I'll

his hands. "Mr. Lloyd, what are you saying? If you want to ask, it's just a matter ofopening my mouth. How

must warn you, Mr. Lloyd, that place is the most dangerous spot in Goldridge right now. Nearly 100 different
factions are circling it.
"They say everyone is after a single woman. Even Henry and the McCormicks made their move, but they got
nowhere. Whoever is inside, they're no ordinary opponents." Not only did Jack reveal Shiloh's location, but he

together. "Thank you. I'll treat you to dinner sometime." Jack grinned. "Dinner's nothing. Once this is done, I'll
