They met with Mr. Thompson first thing the next morning.

Brie surprised Tono when they arrived at the office. “Tono, I would like you to come to the meeting with me.”

“Won’t your lawyer be opposed to that?”

“I don’t care. Last night, Marquis made me realize just how foolish I am to keep you in the dark.”

If Mr. Thompson was surprised to see Tono enter the room, he didn’t show it. The lawyer held out his hand to shake Brie’s before shaking his.

He indicated they both should sit. “As you know, this is the last day of the imposed deadline, but we have yet to hear from Miss Meyers since her phone call. The police did recover her phone last night in an alleyway near the hospital.”

“So they aren’t any nearer to catching her?”

“They’ve increased their presence, but at this point that is all they can do.”

Brie shuddered. “It’s like she left the phone as a calling card for me.”

“Mrs. Davis, she has not sent over any documentation of the genetic test she claims to have. Therefore, I am left to conclude she has no case against Mr. Davis, and is trying to use scare tactics to convince you to pay. I suspect she’ll try something today, but hold your ground. She has nothing to support her accusation.”

“And if she goes to the press?” Brie asked.

“We will immediately counter with the breaking of the restraining order, her lack of evidence, and your testimony that she has threatened blackmail.”

“I hope it doesn’t come to that.”

Tono could feel her anxiety rising and asked, “How are you doing, Brie?”

“I feel nauseous, but I’m taking heart that it’s almost over—whatever happens.”

Mr. Thompson stood up. “Miss Meyers has chosen to play a dangerously foolish game. One that will only succeed in landing her in jail.”

Brie stood up to shake his hand. “Thank you for helping me through this. Your dedication to Sir and to me has been invaluable.”

“While it’s not over yet, serving you has been my distinct pleasure, Mrs. Davis. I deeply appreciate the devotion you’ve shown to your husband, and I hope he recovers soon.”

Tono drove Brie straight to the hospital to be with Sir Davis, knowing that the security staff was on high alert. Lilly would not be able to reach Brie unless she physically came to the hospital, and she would be unable to contact Brie unless she called using a direct line.

While Brie stayed in the ICU with Sir Davis, Tono took the opportunity to make the rounds outside the hospital, hoping to catch a glimpse of the woman. He was unnerved by the fact that he did not feel her presence.

The whole day went by without any incident, so Tono was on extra alert as he took Brie home. Again, the police sent regular patrols through the neighborhood, taking the threat seriously.

Brie was convinced Lilly would leak it to the press and spent the night obsessively watching the television, switching channels constantly, waiting for the news to break.

By midnight, Brie turned to Tono.
