“They’re simply one other household to look at.”

“Understood.” I acquired up and appeared for Leo. Dad had at all times been cautious to not remark or impose his views on our love lives. Not less than not until we requested for his recommendation. So, the actual fact he had performed simply that tossed me for a loop.

“Leo,” I waved once I noticed him, “let’s transfer.”

We acquired some champagne and top-shelf bourbon all arrange within the workplace, together with some Cuban cigars to have a good time the contract.

“Harris is about to reach in forty,” Leo glanced at his watch, “and Kenna needs to be right here any second.”

“Good.”

“Ah.” Leo paused, and I appeared up.

“Out with it.” I clipped the tip of the cigar.

“Have you ever seen something but? Like we mentioned on the flight?” I set the cutter on the desk and tapped a finger subsequent to it as I assumed.

“I’ve my suspicions, sure.”

“I believe it’s time we talked, Grim.” Leo chewed his lip. “I’m involved issues are even worse than I assumed.”

“I agree we must always, has dad spoken to you?”

“No.” He checked out me oddly.

“Now’s not the time. Let’s simply give attention to getting via this. We get the contract signed, then we’ll discuss.”

My cellphone vibrated, and I noticed a textual content.

Jesse: Nonetheless no signal of Kenna.

Grim: Preserve your eyes open.

What the hell?

I shortly referred to as my father.

“Dad, are you able to attempt Kenna once more. She’s nonetheless not right here.”

“Actually? Sure, I’ll try this proper now.” We hung up, and I tapped the cellphone display as I assumed.

I referred to as the kitchen and was glad somebody picked with such a busy occasion downstairs.

“Kitchen,” the woman answered.

“That is Grim. Put Chef Dale on.”

“Instantly, sir!” She didn’t miss a beat, and a second later a frazzled chef answered.

“Mr. Gates, what can I do for you?”

“Dale, have you ever seen Kenna tonight?”

“No, sir, I’ve been loopy busy within the kitchen the entire day.” Fuck. “Have you ever checked with Minnie? She typically goes to her membership. Particularly if she must let off some steam.” He appeared to key in to my concern.

“When you see her, inform her she’s wanted on the 20th.” I didn’t look ahead to his response and hung up. An odd feeling washed over me.

“Let’s go. Leo. One thing’s not proper.” I waved for him to comply with. We raced down the hallway, and simply as I pushed the button to name the elevator, the doorways parted.
