As Joe turned to walk to his office, he glanced toward them and saw Maren.

Their eyes meeting, Maren crossed her arms in front of her. She slowly shook her head. It reminded Jared of his late mother whenever she was about to scold him. Joe cut across the kitchen and gave Maren’s cheek a quick kiss. The man, Jared noted, didn’t appear to be the slightest bit inhibited.

“Before you start in on your speech,” Joe told Maren, “Eduardo didn’t come to me. I went to him.”

She knew better. “And, what, you just felt like giving away money?”

“Loaning,” Joe corrected her. “I’m just loaning Eduardo some money. He’s good for it—” lowering his head, he peered at her over the tops of his clear-framed glasses “—unless you decide to fire him.”

She sighed. Joe was absolutely incorrigible, and she loved him for it. “I wouldn’t do that. Eduardo’s a good worker.”

“Exactly.” His comment was directed toward both of them. “A good worker who’s just in a financial jam, that’s all.”

She fixed Joe with a look. She knew when he was being devious. “And just how did you find out about this financial jam?”

“Carlos told me. He said that Eduardo had fallen behind in his rent because of the usual family problems. Two of his kids got sick and his oldest was outgrowing his clothes almost weekly.”
