Chapter 53

Claire lockedher bedroom door behind her before calling Betty. She answered at the first ring. "Well?" Betty asked.

"You were right," Claire answered.

"I told you that you couldn't count on Mr. FBI."

It pained Claire to acknowledge that Betty was right, but they were past the point of arguing.

"Are you going to meet me or not?" Betty hissed.

"I'll be there."

"You're sure you can get away?"

"It won't be a problem," Claire answered.

"Good. Tell no one."
