CHAPTER NINE

Robert glanced at the modest house on the quiet street. Granny pulled into the driveway, killed the engine and tugged the key out of the ignition.

“We’re here.” She gave him a smile.

“Yes, we are.” His mind was already at work, on how he could take her out silently and quickly. He could take her down before she got her door open, but some neighbor might see. No, it would be best to do this once they were inside and away from potential prying eyes. Then he’d grab the car keys and make his way into Missouri. Once there, he would be home free.

He grabbed the umbrella and went around to her side of the door. The rain was now only a drizzle, but he knew how old women were about their hair.

They walked silently to the front door illuminated by small porch lights. He surveyed the distance from her house to the closest neighbor. It was an older neighborhood and the houses were fairly spread apart from each other. There was a security light at the end of the cul-de-sac and he noticed she didn’t have any motion sensor lights. That was a plus.

He didn’t see a security sign or cameras so it was a good possibility she didn’t have an alarm system.

It couldn’t have been a more perfect set-up for a criminal.

“I hope you like Wild Turkey. It’s the only hard liquor I keep in the house. My late husband was a fan of the stuff so I keep it on hand for company.”

“Sounds good.” He followed her into the house.

He shut the door, turned the lock. And smiled.

He turned around ready to grab her by the neck, but she was gone.

“I’ve got some leftover pot roast. Since we didn’t get to eat, how about we have some of that?”

“I’m not really …”

“I’ve also got some potato salad, green beans and corn.”

He tapped his hand on his pants, irritation flaring in his gut. The need to make her shut the hell up was overwhelming.

Anger and rage boiled inside his veins and he stalked to the kitchen. This old bat was going to be sorry she ever ran across him.

“Oh, well look at that.” Her eyes widened.

He followed her voice into the dining room ready to overpower her.

“What?” he gritted out between clenched teeth.

“I got a new shipment in. I guess Jayden saw the package by the front door and set it inside so no one would steal it.” She looked at him and shook her head. “You would be surprised how many people tell me my business is immoral and corrupt. Some have told me it’s against the law.” She snorted. “But it sure doesn’t stop them from stealing my shipment right off my front porch. Bunch of hypocrites. That’s what they are.” She shook her head in disgust. “The world isn’t a safe place anymore.”

“What’s in the box?” If people were stealing it off her front porch it must be worth a lot of money.

“Oh, well…” She gave him a shaky smile.
