Chapter Fifteen

After leaving Jared's loft the next morning, my health took a fast downhill slide by the time I reached the driveway of our duplex. In light of Jimmy, he followed me home in his car, and after waving him off, I weaved unsteadily into the house and promptly sent him a message.

E: Dying. Was it an attempt on our lives by Mr. Chow or are you ok?

J: Baby, I’m fine. Want me to take you to the doctors?

Of course he was fine. Mr. Chow’s manager probably slipped something in the food that somehow only killed off females, thus removing me from the equation and allowing him to make his move.

E: No. Thanks though. Will see how I am later.

Jared had left this morning for what he said was a busy day, no doubt interrogating suspicious witnesses with his unwavering stare and coordinating million dollar ransom drop offs. I wasn’t going to interfere in that.

Mac and Henry still asleep left me free to hit the shower and towelling off, I promptly found myself either about to lose my entire stomach to the bowels of the toilet or die. Dying, at that point, seemed the much preferable option.

Henry banged on the bathroom door. “Evie, are you okay?”

“Peachy,” I called back feebly and curled myself into a ball in the bathtub, hesitant of venturing too far from the toilet that was now my new best friend.

“What’s going on?” I heard Mac ask Henry outside the bathroom door.

“I don’t know. I think she might be sick.”

“She can’t be sick.” Mac sounded horrified. “I just got off the phone with Gary. They’re doing video footage of Jamieson live at the White Demon tonight.”

My stomach pitched terribly at that unfortunate piece of second hand news, and I pulled myself up from my wedged position in the bathtub to retch violently in the toilet again.

“What’s going on?” Cooper asked from the hallway.

I flushed the toilet and sank back down into the bathtub.

“Maybe she’s pregnant?” Mac sounded hopeful.

“Bugger off,” I moaned.

“Evie, are you okay?” Frog asked.

The doorknob rattled.

“Is it locked?” Jake whispered.

Was the entire world coming over to see me brought low?
