The banker's young assistant adjusted the black armbands cinching up his white shirt sleeves. "But Mister Cramer, she's been waiting nearly thirty minutes already. She says she had a nine o'clock appointment with you and—“ Cramer proved his impatience by exhaling a loud sigh. "I'll get to her when I'm good and ready," he said through clenched teeth. "What sort of woman traipses around the country doing a man's bidding, anyway? If she doesn't know her place in proper society now, she'll know it ...by the time I'm finished with her!" He punctuated his statement by lifting his head slightly, then bringing it down with a snap.
    "Yessir, Mister Cramer." The young man glanced in Bess's direction and shot her a weak, apologetic smile.
    Bess did not return it. She'd heard every word, loud and clear. Who did Cramer think he was, dictating who should make this deal on Micah's behalf! But she wouldn't give him the satisfaction of seeing that he'd riled her.
