Chapter 8

Carter was looking over his lack of finances when someone knocked on the door. He looked up when the door opened without his permission and was startled to see his secretary being held at gunpoint by none other than Molly Barker.

“You should know that when you let her go, I’m going to have you arrested.” Molly snorted at him but didn’t move. “Let her go and let’s talk about what you’re going to give me or I’ll have you brought up on charges.”

“I’m not worried about you. You know as well as I do that whatever you think you have against me, it’s nothing compared to the hurt I’m going to bring down on you when I can prove you killed my sister.” Carter started to reach under his desk for the gun, but something poked him in the head. “I’d like you to meet my lawyer, Phil Campbell. I understand you’ve been looking for us.”

That fucking idiot he had sent to bring Molly and Phil to his office had been arrested yesterday. Trespassing of all things. And then they’d found his car. Carter had no idea what the fool thought he was going to do with enough firepower to take on a small country, but now he was in jail awaiting a hearing. As far as Carter was concerned, he could rot there. He looked at Molly when he saw a movement and felt his body freeze again. There she was again.

“Do you see that?” Before he finished the question, Mary was gone again. Carter was having hallucinations, and now they had followed him to his work. “She was right there.”

The first time he’d seen Mary, he’d been standing in his bathroom shaving. The hotel had shitty service, but he knew this was only temporary and had overlooked the cheap faucets and non-heated floors. He was going to get his house back if it was the last thing he did. But the image of Mary standing behind him had him cutting his face as he jerked around.

The second time he’d seen her, he’d been in his limo. Carter really didn’t have a lot of things to look up on his computer on the way to his job, so he’d been playing a game. But again a movement caught his eye. This time she spoke.

“Hello, asshole. How are you getting along without my money?” He nearly wet himself when she suddenly disappeared. Carter sat there until his car came to a stop. Then he nearly leapt from the car. And now this.

“See what?” Molly smiled at him and for whatever reason, he thought she knew what he was seeing. She moved toward his desk and helped his secretary sit down. “Alice tells me that you’re planning a big raid on my house. It seems you’ve hidden things everywhere on the estate and plan to go back and get it.”

“Who?” He had no idea who this Alice person was, and Carter was equally sure she’d had a camera in his office.
