His head snapped up to me. Looking down at him to help matters since his neck looked like it would pop out of its socket if he kept stretching it like that. “What?” He lets out a sound that’s more like a hiss and a screech at the same time. “You think I didn’t fucking know you already had that club built months ago?” His eyes were wide now. “Y-you knew?” “Yes, you, Buffon.
