DASH SIPPED his coffee and tried to ignore Carla’s significant glances. The girl wasn’t subtle.

“Daddy, has Karl Evenride been in touch with you?” She glared at Dash.

He glared back.

The governor looked out from behind the pile of morning briefing papers a member of his staff had brought over earlier. He seemed to be trying to focus his eyes on Carla. “What?”

“Karl Evenride. You know, the idiot who came to the picnic. Donald’s father?”

“I know who Karl Evenride is. What about him?”

“Has he been in touch with you? You know, since the picnic?”

“Uh, I don’t think so.” He blinked. “Actually, I think I’ve gotten a couple emails from him asking if he can come and see me, but I haven’t had a chance to answer.”

She leaned across her corn flakes. “Daddy, this dude is trying to spread a bunch of crap about the Vanessen family. You’re sure he hasn’t said anything to you?”

He frowned. “No, but I haven’t been real available. Why the he—heck would someone want to spread lies about Casper or Lindsey?”

“We don’t know. But the guy’s bad news.”

Dash leaned in and put a hand on Carla’s arm. “But we’d like to know what he’s using as his so-called evidence against the Vanessens, so if he contacts you, please agree to see whatever he has, okay?”

“Well, yes, of course. This is very disturbing.”

“Yes, it is, sir.”

“How could someone say negative things about Casper? He’s as close to above reproach as any businessman I’ve ever met. I’ve seen him do many things that were against his own best interests in order benefit his employees or the community. A lot of people would say the man’s a saint.”

“Evenride says the Vanessens are devil worshippers,” Carla snarled.

The governor barked a laugh. “Seriously?”

“He claims it is.”

“If you’re finished with this line of idiocy, why don’t you invite all your fellow interns to dinner?” Mrs. Mendes added. “I’d love to meet them, and I always enjoy seeing Jazz, little devil worshipper that he is.” She smiled and they all laughed.
