“So, when the time comes, when you see us headed out, you need to get out too. Go your separate way, but you’ll see an address and room number for the hotel on your phone. Meet us there. Immediately. Don’t want you to get caught up in the aftermath here.”
Elena nods, looking around at the people of the party as if she is just surveying the crowd like everyone else. “We’ve got champagne and everything we need to celebrate. This is full-on independence.” I pass her the hotel key, and she nonchalantly tucks it into her bra.

“She is just making sure you know what is in place. Don’t worry. This is going off without a hitch.”
