Capítulo 14: Chapter 14

“I appreciate that you’re worried about me. I do. If I needed any kind of proof about what kind of a guy you are, that’s it. And I know you saw me at my absolute worst. Things were bad that night I escaped. Real bad. I know that. But I’ve been a cop for ten years. Until I moved here, all I did was undercover work. I’ve seen some bad shit. I’m not going to fall apart walking into an empty house.”

Jeremy wasn’t going to be put off. “But there’s a difference between witnessing bad shit and experiencing bad shit. You must know that, since you have been a cop for ten years. Besides…you can think of it as humoring me.”

“I could tell Chief you’re interfering with an investigation.”

“So could I.”

Brendan laughed at that. “I’m starting to think you have a secret desire to be a cop, the way you keep wanting to help.”
