Raina contacted Aidan early the following morning and made arrangements to meet him at her office. When she arrived, Robert was waiting for her in the conference room.
“Thank god you’re safe!” he said, hugging her.
Before they could catch up, Aidan arrived.
“While you guys were away, I worked on the case trying to move it forward. After your disappearance, I talked with the Brothers, and they’re not sure they want to proceed. They’re very concerned with everyone’s safety,” Robert said.
Aidan listened intently, wondering why he was asked to be at this meeting.
“I thought that might be their reaction. But I believe the best protection for all of us is to shed as much light as possible on the artifacts and expose the “Righteous Way” to the public,” Raina said, looking at Aidan.
“I agree bringing this to the people will give the “Righteous Way” something else to deal with, but I’m not sure Acey and Hillary will agree,” Aidan said.
“That’s where you come in. I would like you to convince them to go public with this. I will talk to Dirk and get his concurrence,” Raina said.
Aidan gave her a concerned look.
“Why don’t you talk to her? You’re her sister,” he argued.
“Because given your history with her, I believe you have a better chance of persuading her than me.”
“She won’t even talk to me. The whole time we were captured, she hardly said anything to me.”
“Then here’s your opportunity to fix that. I am swamped, and as my PI, I need you to do this.”
Aidan stared at Robert, who kept as non-committal as he could.
“I won’t promise anything, but I’ll try,” Aidan said, walking out of the meeting shaking his head.
“Why did you do that? You could have easily talked with Acey,” Robert said.
“I know, but for Acey’s sake, she needs to get some resolution from this relationship with Aidan.”
“Maybe so, but forcing the situation could be a disaster,” he said.
“You may be right, but I have a strong feeling it will all work out well. We’ll wait and see.”
