The doors slammed shut behind them with a whoosh of finality. Inside, a burly security guard eyed them through the glass, his arms folded menacingly.

“You got me kicked out, too!” Rose snarled. “Why did you do that? Why? Do you have any idea how stupid you were? Learn to compromise!”

“But I was right!” Henry protested.

Rose shoved her hat on her head and glared at him. How could any woman with a personality like mine have married an idiot like this?

“Don’t worry,” Henry said, eyeing the grandeur of the pillars on either side of them. “There must be a way to get back into the building. Maybe I could break one of those windows, or . . .”

“Mr. Wainscott,” Rose said with extreme exasperation, “I believe you have caused enough disasters for today. Please try not to get yourself arrested by destroying or intruding on private property. Rest assured that if you intend to try, I would be the first to report you to the authorities.”

“It wouldn’t work, anyway,” Henry murmured, putting his hat back on. “I’m sure they have security guards at night.”

“If that’s your primary concern, I remain apprehensive,” Rose said icily. “Mr. Wainscott, negotiations would have been possible in a few days, after it had become evident the child was alive and requesting our presence. Now, you have poisoned the director’s goodwill. I am not pleased.”

Henry’s shoulders drooped.

Without a word, Rose turned on her heel and walked away.
