"Uncle?"
Riley's expression changed again. He had been certain that mentioning Sienna's father would finally force Zachary to take him seriously. Yet Zachary still looked completely unfazed.
For the first time, Riley did not know what to say.
Zachary looked at him for several seconds before his expression softened slightly.
"Riley, before you go any further down the wrong path, I'm going to give you some advice," he said. "Stop now, before you sink any deeper into this. If you keep going, there will come a point when you won't be able to take back what you've done, and you'll regret it."
Riley remained silent, staring at him.
There was no anger in Zachary's voice, and no need to raise it. He was not trying to intimidate Riley. He was simply making it clear that Riley's threats had failed to move him and that he understood exactly what kind of person Riley was becoming.
Zachary turned his attention to Logan, who sat behind the wheel.
"You can drive now, Logan."
"Yes, sir."
