She burst into tears.

Mallory pulled her close and held her, despite the pain in his arms from being in such a restrained position. “It’s all right. It’s all over.”

“Poor man,” she choked out.

“He chose his life, Miss Brannt,” Harding told her quietly.

“But he didn’t,” she said through tears. “He had a learning disability and all sorts of psychological problems. But he didn’t get help because his mother thought they’d say there was something wrong with her, too.”

“Good Lord,” Mallory said heavily. “If only we’d known.”

“We all have a purpose,” Morie said again.

“Yes, we do,” Harding said, surprisingly. “People weave themselves into the fabric of our lives for reasons we sometimes never understand. But there is a purpose to everything. Even Bascomb’s suicide.”

“At least his mother didn’t live to see him come to this end,” Mallory said. He tilted up Morie’s wet face. “And speaking of family, we’d better start making telephone calls. My brothers must be out of their minds, to say nothing of your mother and brother and your vicious, rabid father… .”

“He isn’t vicious. You’ll learn to love him,” she assured him.

“Think so?” Harding mused, pursing his lips. “I’ve met your father. And I have serious doubts about that.”

She chuckled. “You don’t know him. I do.”

“My loss, I’m sure,” Harding conceded. He looked up as the Jeep arrived. “Let’s get you to the hospital, Mr. Kirk. You’ll need to be checked out.”

“Hospital? I’m not going to any damned hospital!” he burst out as they helped him into the Jeep.

“Yes, you are,” Morie told him firmly. “Now sit back and shut up. We’re saving you.”

He gave her a blank stare. And then he chuckled. “Okay, boss,” he drawled. “Whatever you say.”

“You just remember that, and we’ll get along famously.” She batted her long lashes at him and grinned.
