For Christ's sake, Hailey, you have to listen to me or he will kill you and as your father, I don't want that to happen so, to prevent that to happen you need to leave this City. Go far away. Just stay away from Grey for a while, okay? Because for sure, he's on his way looking for you. You don't know, Grey, but, I do.
