“Sir, did you have a guest in your home?”

“No. I never have anyone in my home. Who is up there?” Well, except for Harley, but that’s none of his business.

“There’s a woman.” I try to run past him, but his men stop me. “I can’t let you up there and contaminate the scene.”

“God, no. Please tell me it’s not Harley. She’s supposed to be in Steeleville.” I call her phone several times and get no answer.

I call my uncle, and he picks up on the first ring. “Hey Dylan. Is everything okay?”

“Where’s Harley?”

“She’s laying down in bed. She was sleepy, and I think she misses you a lot. She woke up enough to eat a little, but then went right back to bed.”

“Good, thank God. Okay. I’ve got to go. I’ll call her later.” I end the call.

“I can’t imagine who would be up there. I hardly even acknowledge women, and I don’t allow women into my home.”

“A blonde.”

“Shit. There’s only one that I’m acquainted with. I fired her two weeks ago. There’s no reason for her to even be in my home.”

“Sir, I have the elevator footage.”

“Would you happen to know how a woman got into my apartment?”

“Earlier, Tim brought her to clean it. She was supposed to make it nice for your return. I told him that I’d have to call you, but he said it was a birthday surprise.”

“Birthday surprise? My birthday’s in June.”

“Do you have footage of that?” the officer asks.

“I do. It will take me a few minutes, but I can pull it up right here.” He does some magic on his tablet, and I see him bringing in Sandra Stone dressed in a maid’s uniform and carrying a large bag.

“That’s Sandra Stone, the woman I fired.”

“Why is she carrying a large bag?” I say to myself.

“Good question.”

We continue to watch them after they get on the elevator. “You look for the documents to his bank accounts, and I’ll have a little fun punishing him for touching what didn’t belong to him,” Tim says with a smile.

“Why is everyone so damn obsessed with that mousy bitch?” He slams her against the wall of the small confines.

“Watch your fucking mouth. No one talks about Harley like that. She’s precious and perfect, something a whore like you wouldn’t know anything about.” He releases her roughly.

“You didn’t mind this whore an hour ago.”

“I was thinking of Harley.”

“You’re fucking disgusting.”

He just ignores her, but I want to shoot him again. I look over to his dead body and move closer. The officer grabs my arm.

“Calm down. He’s already dead.” His grip remains firmly on me until I take a calming breath and nod that I’m good. If I’d known this before, I might have shot him the second I stepped in the elevator. “Given the state of the place, I don’t know what happened between them, but it didn’t end well for Ms. Stone.”

“She probably opened up her mouth again,” my security guard says.

“I have no doubt. She wasn’t known for her tact and tended to speak her mind. I’m sorry that he killed her, even if I didn’t care for her.” It’s a total lie because the bitch had a part in my woman’s kidnapping.
