Chapter Seventeen
After a few hours of scaring the crap out of Stan, Seth had finally let the grateful man go with a promise that they wouldnât tell the cops on him if he didnât tell on Seth for hitting him a few times. Dare called back and was able to affirm before Stan left that what heâd told them â at least about himself â was true. He didnât have a criminal history and frankly he didnât look frightening or intimidating in the least.
âWhat do you think Stan will tell Eric?â Presley asked Seth later that night as they finished their room service dinner and lounged on the bed. It had been an eventful day. âDo you think heâll tell him about us?â
Seth finished punching in another text to Tanner. Heâd been on and off the cell phone almost constantly since Stanâs hasty departure. The private eye had said he was heading back to Montana tonight since there was no more reason for him to be here in Vegas.
âYes and no. I do think heâll tell him he saw us but I doubt heâll tell the person paying him that he was made.â Seth had given poor Stan some career advice this afternoon. Stick with divorces. Stan seemed to agree. âHe wonât want to admit that we know why he was here. Assuming he was telling the truth about Harbaugh but I donât think he was lying about that. He seemed sincere. I think heâll just tell him that we donât have the money.â
âDo you think Eric will expect us to show up?â
That had Seth dragging his nose out of his phone and giving her all his attention.
âNo, because weâre not going to show up and see him.â
It was obvious that her husband was losing his patience. Since Stan Wallace had told them his story, Seth hadnât wanted to listen to anything she had to say.
Tough. Unless he left the hotel room, Seth was a captive audience now.
âOne,â she said, counting out on her fingers as he groaned and leaned back against the stacked pillows and headboard. Sheâd shut up about it all over dinner but he didnât honestly believe that sheâd dropped it completely? Didnât he know her at all? âOne, the cartel might believe that you have the money. Thatâs one good reason to do it.â
âPresley, I do not want to talk about this. Canât we just enjoy our last night in Las Vegas? Letâs go dancing.â
She wanted to talk and he was stonewalling her. He hated to dance and the only reason he was offering was to distract her. Did he honestly think it was going to work? She wasnât Ben or Lulu.
âTwo,â she went on as if heâd never spoken. âThe authorities might believe you have the money and come after you someday.â
âI cannot believe youâre still talking.â Seth scraped a hand down his face before turning toward her. âListen to me closely, my wife, please. The government does not think I have the money. I have been cleared.
