“Because they were a gift from Charlie.” Sarah froze at the name of GEM’s head of the R&D division.
Charlie Novak and her wife, Alex, are to GEM what Q is to James Bond.
They were behind most of our weapons’ schemes and were absolutely brilliant with inventing accessories that could turn your enemies inside out. The R&D division would be nothing without them.
I wanted to kick myself for losing the prototype. Not only could the million-dollar pair of eyeglasses have gotten us out of this place, but Charlie was going to have a conniption when she found out I lost the damn thing.
“Tell me you were able to keep them until you got to the island?” she asked as she frantically searched for the spectacles, but to no avail.
“Yes, but I lost the connection when we got out of range and had to turn them off to keep them from detection.”
“ARGHHHHHH!” she screamed in frustration as the other prisoners looked at us.
I silently watched with my arms crossed, while she paced back and forth, cussing the air blue in frustration.
When she calmed down long enough to stand still, I casually said, “So.”
“So?” she frowned at my tone.
“When were you going to tell me the Irish Butcher was in love with my wife?”
“Fuck.”
My thoughts exactly.
