Robin went back to her office and called the deputy DA who had the O’Leary case. He wasn’t in, so she left a message asking him to call her. As soon as she completed the call, she started checking her emails. Halfway through, the receptionist told her that she had a call.

“Miss Lockwood?” a voice from the past asked.

“Chesterfield?!”

“It is I.”

“Why are you calling?”

“Do you still have my retainer?”

“It’s in my trust account.”

“How much is left?”

“Most of it. I didn’t do much work on your case.”

“Excellent. I was wondering if you might bring the balance to me in cash.”

“I’ll have my secretary go to the bank tomorrow. Come by after noon, and it will be at the front desk.”

“Actually, I was hoping that you could meet me this afternoon.”

“I have a lot of work to do. It would be easier if you came here.”

“I agree, but I’m being followed, and I’m concerned that these individuals might stake out your office.”

“What kind of trouble are you in, Robert?”

“It’s nothing you need worry about.”

“You just told me that people are watching my office. If these people warrant concern, then I am going to worry. What is going on?”

“I’ll explain when you bring the money.”

Robin debated refusing to bring Chesterfield the cash, but her curiosity overrode her common sense. “Where do you want to meet?”
