CHAPTER TWENTY-FOUR

“And there he is again.” Joan pointed out the man in the blue button up shirt. He had a scar, red, from his ear to his chin. It was too memorable to forget. “He’s everywhere today.”

Mae and Amanda looked where she indicated. “Who is he?”

“I have no idea. I saw him walking through the ER this morning after first rounds. Then again at lunch.” Joan held up a second finger counting the incidents. “When I had to meet with legal council upstairs, he was in the elevator.”

“Why did you have to go to legal council?” Amanda asked.

Mae, who’d witnessed the incident, jumped right in with the answer. “This guy came in, and Joan starts asking him the basic questions about why he’s come to the ER. So the guy says he needs a flu shot.”

“I hate it when we get those. There’s an urgent care right across the street for non-emergencies.” Amanda grumbled. “He could go to the pharmacy at the grocery store and get a shot.”

“Anyway,” Mae said no longer able to wait. “She gives him the shot and he starts ranting that she gouged him. He says he’s going to sue her and her husband for a million dollars for pain and suffering.”

Amanda laughed. “That’s stupid. No way. Is he really following through with that? Is that why you had to go up to legal?”

“Well, he was until he found out I don’t have any money and that my “prenup” details that I have no claim or right to the Wainwright fortune.”

“Prenuptial agreement with those kind of strings? Yeah right. Did he buy it?”

“Yeah. I’m glad he did because, well… you know.” Joan shook her head. “It’s been like that all day. People keep asking me about Liam or calling me a gold digger. How do people have so much time to come find me and call me names? Don’t they have jobs?”

Amanda was watching the guy who kept showing up everywhere as Joan had pointed out. “You know how the economy is right now. We see poverty right here every day. This one,” she said nodding toward Joan’s shadow. “He’s watching every move you make.”

“Why? Isn’t Liam the one with the money? I’m a nurse paying off student loans.”

“As far as he’s concerned you’re the heart’s desire of a billionaire.” Mae put in. “He’s probably part of some kidnapping ransom scheme. It’s happening more and more in Arizona. They pluck you up, take you to Mexico, and hold you for ransom.”

Joan was ready to laugh at Mae, but the guy was talking into his wrist as he casually adjusted his glasses.

Holy crap! He’s here to kidnap me and he has a whole team.

“Mae, you’re scaring her.” Amanda rubbed Joan’s back in a soothing motion. “But with all the attention you’re getting, it wouldn’t hurt to have security walk you to your car.”

“What good will that do? They’ll just run her off the road.” Mae gestured pointing right at the guy with the glasses.

Joan watched as he stood up and started to leave.
