Chapter Nine

Brent reluctantly got out of her bed and dressed. “My next stop is the Cut and Curl. I need to ask permission to use the back room to meet with my men. It’s the one place where I don’t think Yannell or his men would expect to find us.”

“You really think he's coming?”

“My guess is yes. I believe in being prepared.”

“I’ll call Doris and let you know what she says. How is this all going to happen?” Angie sat on the side of her bed, looking up at him.

“When your sister arrives, we'll arrange a meeting. Shortly afterward I’ll have you both on a plane going to Montana. We have a private jet that you’ll travel on. I’ll notify my dad to meet you.”

“And you’ll come get me as soon as this is over?”

“I promise. Pack one suitcase. You won’t need much. But it can be cool at night, even in the summer, so take a jacket.”

“Yes, sir.” She saluted him. He kissed her mouth, and she put her arms around his neck. “You will be careful?”

“Always, darlin’. Got to go.” He pulled her up and held her against his long, hard frame for just a second, gave her another quick kiss, and strode out of her bedroom. She heard the screen shut behind him.

“Lock the door, honey!” he yelled back.

“Wait.” Angie pulled on her slacks and hurried to the kitchen. She grabbed the chest with the letters and key. “Take these, but I want the chest and letters back eventually.”

Brent brushed a light kiss across her mouth. “Will do.” He strode across the lawn to the truck.

She watched as he turned onto the road and disappeared. Fear and excitement filled her chest. Her heartbeat quickened. She tried to remain calm.

Finally, twenty-one years later, all her secrets were coming out. Soon, she’d meet the baby sister they’d left behind. Would she hate Angie for being the one chosen to go with their mother? Angie tried to think how she’d feel. If she was Lily, she’d definitely resent Angie being taken along with Mother and Lily being left.

Yannell might soon know where Angie was living, if he didn't already. She remembered his eyes that day he’d beat her mother. She had started in the room to speak with her mother and stopped and hid behind the door. When he rushed out, he’d never seen her. His eyes had blazed with anger and hate. Her mother was sobbing and covered in red marks, and places beginning to bruise.

Angie had hated Yannell then, and still did. She hoped they put him in jail for the rest of his life. Still, he was her sister’s father. That was going to be another loss for Lily. What a tangled web.

She pulled a suitcase out of her closet and threw in jeans, shirts, underwear, two sweaters, and shoes. She’d carry her jacket and wear another pair of jeans, a long-sleeve shirt, and her boots. A small makeup bag added on top, and she’d be ready when Brent called.
