Seven Years of Bad Luck
“I felt guilty pretending to be disappointed to be without him for a couple of days, but I had snooping to do. Having Ben out of town would allow me to dig into John Murray, undisturbed.
Talk about screwed up priorities.
“So fucked up, Kat,” I muttered to myself in my little office. Just before lunch, Ben called me over intercom and asked that I take him to the airport. I doubted he needed me to take him. It was obvious to me that he wanted a moment or two alone with me. I didn’t mind in the sli...ghtest.
“Ready?” I asked Ben.
“As I’ll ever be. Let’s go.” As we walked through the parking lot to Ben’s SUV, we passed Janis, Trevor’s secretary. Ben didn’t look in her direction, but I did. She looked at me with absolute disdain.
No love lost there.
In response to her dirty look, I smiled brightly at her and waved as if we were the best of friends. Her expression never faltered. I had no idea why that woman made my skin crawl, but she did. It was obvious that she was fixated on Ben, but I had a nasty feeling that told me that there was more to the story.MoreLess
