Treasures of Darkness Book 3

Jim decided to ignore Mr. Slipps's phone call. He would not check the message. But why was he calling? Did he want to give Jim an update? Would he keep on calling for the next three days? Slipp had just pushed his way into Trey's apartment and given him another white envelope, a threat. After Slipp left, Jim had seen "evidence" that McCann, the presidential candidate, must be "him", the top guy, the boss, a Quant. Obviously working for McCann, Slipp would continue to play his part as the messenger boy.

Slipp had said that he wouldn't contact Jim again for three days. So, he could probably ignore him 'til then. What should he do? Did Jim really want to hand over the document after all? If McCann were the guy at the top of a violent organization with psychotic roots, then McCann had to be stopped. Was Jim the guy to do it?

Jim looked at his phone again. There was the message from Slipp and another new message from Trey.

Jim dialed his voicemail and listened. Trey was asking if his friend, Maggie, could take the kids to the Museum of Science and Industry tomorrow. She had the day off, loved kids, and could she pick them up at 9 am. She had heard about them from Trey who couldn't say enough good things about Adrianna and Jay.

The kids came into the room, "We're bored, dad," said Jay. The rain had stopped, and the sun was starting to show itself from behind the slate colored clouds.

"I'm sure you are," said Jim. "Would you two like to go with Trey's friend tomorrow to the coolest museum in Chicago?" The kids were thrilled with the idea.

"We're hungry too, dad," they complained.

"Are you up for some Chicago famous deep-dish pizza?" asked Jim.

The meal was great, and everyone felt that the trip to the windy city had been worth it so far. On the way back to Trey's place, Adrianna asked Jim, "What are you going to do about that weird guy, dad?"

"You know, I think I found what he's looking for, what he's been looking for all along. And I'm going to give it to him when he comes back in a couple of days."

"Oh good, that's a relief!" she said.

Jim and Jay looked at each other. They weren't so sure that relief was actually in sight.

The next morning Maggie came up to Trey's to get the kids. She was an attractive blonde with a welcoming smile and enough energy to handle a field trip with the O’Neill’s. "You are coming along aren't you, Jim?" she asked.

"Well, if it's all the same to you, I think I'll stay here and get some work done." It was decided that the three of them would return for dinner and that they'd keep in touch with Jim throughout the day.

"Have a great time in the coal mine!" Jim called as they headed for the elevator.

"My favorite thing at the museum!" called out Maggie as the elevator doors shut.
