Chapter 11

The doorman offered to call a taxi, but I declined. In my pocket was some of the money Corbin had given me, and I planned to catch a cab, but not from the hotel lobby.

It just felt smarter not to. What I was doing didn’t need to be linked directly back to Corbin if something went wrong.

I’d only gotten about a block away when my phone rang.

“Hi, Bertrand,” I said.

“Audrey, you hurt my feelings,” he said in a mock-wounded voice.

“I did?”

“I heard you went for a stroll and didn’t bother inviting me.”

That made me stop walking. “And who, pray tell, is tracking my whereabouts?”

“It’s nothing sinister, I promise. I believe, though I wasn’t there so I can’t know for sure, that Corbin was concerned someone might be watching you, and so he asked the front desk to keep track of anyone going to or from your suite.”

“Lovely,” I murmured, and I reminded myself that I wasn’t allowed to start a fight with Corbin anytime soon. “And they called you.”

“Oh, there you are,” he said cheerfully. “Right behind you, mademoiselle.”

I’d sensed a car rolling slowly in the street, and yeah, there he was. He waved and gave me a big smile. The guy was working hard for his tip.

I got into the back. “I do need to go somewhere, but give me a moment,” I said.

“No problem.” He rolled down the window and began whistling.

Shaking my head, I quickly looked up Nicole’s address on my phone. There was a park about two blocks away, and that was where I asked Bertrand to take me.

“So why did the front desk call you?” I asked.

“I’m afraid that’s also Corbin’s fault,” he said. “It’s just because of the fellow following you. This was a new request.”

I sighed.
