Bryce

My phone rang, and I sighed as I answered it. “This is Bryce.”

“Mr. Remington. It’s Detective Peterson.”

My back stiffened, feeling the stress immediately come over me. “Detective. I wasn’t sure I’d ever hear from you again.”

He chuckled dryly as if he had heard that multiple times through his career. “Well, jobs like this usually just take time. The first couple of weeks is all about learning her movements…where she goes on a regular basis…who I can expect to see her with regularly. Then, it’s all about picking those places apart for answers as to why she goes.”

I blinked. “Right. So, uh, you got anything for me?”

“I wanted to call because I’ve pulled some phone records to take a look at. You know, match those numbers with the people I see her with on a regular basis. And she’s got a great deal of phone calls going to and from a burner number. A few different ones, in fact.”

“Burner phones? You think she’s in some kind of trouble?” I wanted to be worried about her, but that was very difficult for me.

“On the contrary, actually. I think the burner phones connect us to the man you say your wife left you for. Because these numbers predate the day that you told me she walked out.”

My jaw clenched, and my hand curled into a ball. “She was receiving calls from some burner phone asshole even while she was still in the house?”

“I could only pull her records so far back. But, I’ve got the past six months’ worth of records, and these numbers are strewn throughout the days. I’ve got in a queue to pull text messages as well, but that takes infinitely more time to get my hands on.”

I swallowed down a growl. “Call me the second you do.”

“Noted. But, there’s something else you need to be aware of. I stumbled upon it after listening to a very juicy conversation between her and a ‘Miss Lila Edwards.’ That name ring a bell?”

I scoffed, rolling my eyes. “Lila’s her best friend. Why?”

“Well, they were having coffee about a week ago together, and Lila mentioned something about funds. Your wife--.”

“Ex-wife.”

“Right. Your ex-wife got pretty uneasy about the conversation. She switched over to talking about something else, so I did some digging. Turns out, she’s got a bank account in an Auston bank in her maiden name.”

I blinked. “Her maiden name?”

“Yes, sir. Took me a while to pull the records, but once I did, I noticed a trend. Twice a month, on the nose with the days, there are regular deposits that always equal two-thousand dollars that go into this Auston account. And it didn’t take long to trace back where that money is coming from.”

I sighed. “You gotta be kidding me.”

“I’m afraid not, Mr. Remington. She’s been siphoning money out of your joint accounts. You know, a little bit here and there from each account that total up to two-thousand dollars and putting it in this personal account of hers for a while now.
