Dio stared at Adam for a moment before letting out an irritated sigh.
Then, without warning, he threw his smoking pipe at him.
Thwack!
The pipe struck Adam on the forehead before bouncing off.
"Fuck off already!"
Adam rubbed his forehead and glanced at the pipe lying on the floor.
What a temper, he grumbled inwardly.
"Come on, please. Hear me out."
"I have better things to do than entertain some brat who can't even take care of his own business." Dio waved his hand dismissively. "My time is precious. If you came here looking for free consultation, you've come to the wrong place."
"But you're the only person I know in the city."
"Not my problem." Dio sneered.
"Kenley only gave me your contact information!"
Dio's expression visibly darkened. "And why should I care? Just because the little pup sent you here doesn't mean I owe you anything. Now get out before I throw something heavier."
Adam stood his ground. "I'll make it worth your while. I promise!"
