Chương 1039: An Unusual Coyote

On the other end of the call, a woman's lips curled into a grin, as she had been expecting this call at some point in the near future.

"Alexander Leduc. I wasn't expecting your call so soon. I wonder what kind of problem you are in that you call for my help. But my word is my bond, and I shall remain true to it. What can I do for you, friend?" she asked, her last word heavy with intent.

Alex didn't like how she said friend, but he could hardly do anything about it now. He had already called and even hanging up couldn't save him from the bed he was about to make.

With a heavy sigh, Alex proceeded with it.

"You told me last time we talked that you could get in anywhere you wanted. Was that all in New Eden, or was that empty talk backed by real-world skill?" he asked, trying to sound conceited.
