"What have you done?" she whispered

"What have I done?" I asked, shocked Watching E next to him felt like betrayal "He shouldn’t be here, Eoing to handle world-class title fights?"

"He’s not here to fight world-class fucking fighters, he’s here to pro at me should have made me pause Em rarely raised her voice, let alone swore Unfortunately forring with me It’s not my fault if the stupid bastard doesn’t knohen to quit"

"How’s Earnshaw?" I asked, scared now to know the answer

"He’s gonna have a headache tomorrow, but he’s fine You knocked him old cold but he came round a few minutes after you left"
