Stacia’s cell phone was ringing when she entered her dressing room at lunch break. She grabbed it off the table and collapsed on her sofa as she answered it.

“Hi, Stacia,” her assistant said.

“What’s up, Jamie?”

“The media has gone crazy again just like when you were in London. Ever since the story broke about Mark Bennett’s journal, they’ve been calling, wanting an interview with you, or at least some type of statement. I’ve logged them all on my computer and sent them to yours.”

“Thanks, Jamie.” Stacia stood, picked up her laptop and sat back down on the sofa. “I’ll call you when I check the messages over and see what I want to say. My first instinct, however, is to tell them they know more about the journal than I do.”

“I’d recommend another route, but I’ll go with whatever you decide, of course.”

“Why don’t you write up something for me, and you can read it to me when I call you back? Okay?”

“I’ll do my best.”

Stacia laid her phone down, took a sandwich off the lunch tray the studio had delivered and turned on her computer.

She wondered who the anonymous purchaser of Mark’s journal was. Maybe it was the same person who was the mystery backer of London Affair. If he had enough money to finance a movie, he’d certainly have plenty to buy the journal. But why would he want it?

Jamie’s list of callers popped up on the screen. As Stacia scrolled through them, she discovered there were fifty-one calls. And what could she say to this assorted group of newspapers, TV programs, radio stations and magazines about the journal?

She only knew what she’d heard. Helen had said it was filled with love letters to Audra, and also included Mark’s thoughts while he was dying. She couldn’t release any of that information to the press. Farrell wouldn’t say anything to her about the contents, and even if he had, it would also be confidential.

The old standby “no comment” sounded too cold and uncooperative. It would be bad publicity to give out to fifty-one different kinds of media.

One thing was certain. She didn’t want to do any interviews about the journal. So her only alternative was to issue some sort of statement. And Jamie, who was also her publicist, was well-equipped to come up with the right thing to say.

Feeling exhausted after the morning’s takes, Stacia decided to meditate to relax. She went to her special place at SwissDen...and promptly fell asleep.

She was being carried over a threshold into a rustic cabin. She looked up into Mark Bennett’s face. They were both laughing. He set her down on her feet, and they kissed.

“Now you’re officially Mrs. Bennett,” he said. “How about some champagne to celebrate?”

“A sip, maybe. I don’t want anything to dull my senses on our wedding night.” She walked over to the fireplace, and Mark followed her with the champagne and two glasses. He set them down on the end table and lit the wood in the fireplace. Soon, the fire was blazing.
