CHAPTER 24

TODAY

As far as Olive was concerned, Bennett was still her main suspect.

She was especially intrigued by the man she’d seen him meeting yesterday.

She needed to focus most of her efforts on him right now.

When she came in this morning, she hid two of the mini cameras Tevin had given her in her office.

But when she went out to use the bathroom, she also placed a camera on a decorative painting of Chicago located across the hall from Bennett’s office. The camera was small—the size of a pencil eraser—and white so it blended in with the wall. No one should see it.

Olive wanted to know whenever Bennett came and went.

She’d also placed a hidden microphone on a couple of desks in the administrative area so she could listen to the assistants talk. Sometimes, the assistants knew more than anyone—and were up on more of the gossip. Sometimes that gossip might contain a tidbit of truth.

Back in her office, Olive pulled up the camera feed on her computer and made it a smaller window on the top of her screen.

As she kept an eye on Bennett’s movements, she caught up on some correspondence.

Two hours later, Bennett stepped from his office. Based on his coat and the way he locked his door behind him, he was leaving the building.

Was he going to meet with that man again? If he was, this time, she needed to be close so she could hear exactly what the two of them were discussing.

She quickly pulled on her own coat. Then she rushed from her office, told Bree she had to step out for a moment, and then she followed Bennett. He’d already entered the elevator. She watched the numbers atop the metal doors to see what floor he would stop at.

The first floor—just as she’d guessed.

She hopped on the next elevator and willed it to move faster—which, of course, it didn’t.

Once on the first floor, she hurried toward the exit.

Before she reached it, the hair on her neck rose.

Someone was watching her, she realized.

Did that mean someone was onto her?

Dread filled her gut. It was a distinct possibility.
