"Mr. Hunt, you know our relationship. You can't touch Rachel." "Settle scores with Howard before talking to me, and solve your dann problems before I go to your grandfather about it!" Tyler roared. Smoke billowed from his lips, circling him, veiling the frustration on his face.

He had said everything there was to say.
Just as he turned to leave, Tyler's voice rang in the air once more.
