He hobbled back to his car, wincing in pain. That damn woman had gotten him pretty good - right in the groin. But he got her even better, and hopefully she received the message loud and clear because he wasn’t messing around. It was one thing for her to poke her nose in things when she was back home in California. It was quite another to fly across the country and start snooping around and questioning one of the Henleys.

He didn’t know how much more it would take to get this lady off the case, but he knew the boss would not be pleased when he got his next report. Safely back on the highway, he dialed the boss. “Hey, Boss.”

“This isn’t a good time.”

“Got it. I’ll make it quick. I gave her the message after she had a cozy dinner at the bistro.”

Silence from the boss. The message he delivered was cryptic, but surely the boss understood what it meant.

“Call me back in five minutes,” The boss said, before the line went dead.

He continued down the highway, turned off at his exit, and continued until he reached his driveway. Safe inside the garage, he entered his house and kicked off his shoes. He removed his jacket and gloves before dialing the boss again. “Hey, Boss.”

“Tell me everything that happened.”

“I followed her back to the bistro. I could see from outside that she spoke with Amy again. I don’t know what they said, but Amy looked pretty upset afterward. I caught up with the PI in the parking lot and let her know it would be in her best interest to go back home.”

“I don’t like this. Not one bit. I have a feeling this PI won’t stop until she ruins everything. I want this over and done with.”

“You got it, Boss.”

“Let her get back home and then have her taken out. I don’t care how you do it. You can handle it yourself or contract out. I trust you to handle it.”

He never enjoyed taking a life, but he didn’t mind another trip to the West Coast either. Plus, after what that woman had done to his groin, he felt he owed it to Martina Monroe to be there when she took her last breath.
