He went inside and dove into the world of Senator Carlsman, his brother, and Glen Masters—aka Peter Brown.
Three hours later, he looked up to see Bronwyn asleep in his chair. He didn’t remember her coming in. It was almost dark outside, and he was tempted to let her sleep.
But he had answers. Well, partial answers. The rest of what he needed was at The Haven. There’d be no sleep for him until he got what he needed.
He stood, stretched, and walked to her chair. “Bronwyn?”
She made a small sound, shifted, and went still again.
“Bronwyn, baby, we need to go back to your place.”
She cracked an eye open. “Why?”
“Because I need access to the main server.”
She opened both eyes. “You figured it out?”
“If you hadn’t made the connection between Peter Brown and Senator Carlsman, I never would have known where to look. That was the missing piece. Once I had that, everything else fell into place.”
She blinked several times. “Okay. Let’s go.”
It took thirty precious minutes to get everything he needed packed, the files saved, and details sent to Gray. He didn’t tell Bronwyn that he was doing all this in case something happened to them before he could share his findings.
They got into his Jeep and drove toward The Haven. Mo kept his head on a swivel. They made it to the front gates without any issues. Klaus stepped out from the guard house with his business face on. Mo rolled down his window and Klaus peered inside. “Good to have you back, ma’am,” he said to Bronwyn. “Should I arrange for a key card to be made for Mr. Quinn?”
“Yes.” Bronwyn leaned over from the passenger side. “And program his vehicles into the system as well. Full access.”
“I’ll get right on that.” Klaus stepped back inside, and the gates opened.
“Does this mean I can come into The Haven grounds anytime I want?” Mo asked as they drove through.
“It does.”
Bronwyn might not have seen it, but for Mo, this was a big step of trust. “Thank you.”
She sighed. “It’s not much of a prize.”
“Sure it is. This is some of the most beautiful acreage in North Carolina. To be able to come here whenever I want is a gift. Not to mention that you have a few waterfalls I haven’t seen since you snuck me onto the grounds when we were fifteen.”
Finally, a smile. “We had fun, didn’t we?”
“We did. Bet we’ll have even more fun now.”
“Are you going to tell me what you found?”
“As soon as I have it. I’m so close.”
“You told Gray.”
“No, I sent Gray an encrypted file and instructions about whowill be able to access it. He won’t be able to make any sense out of it without Sabrina’s help.”
Beside him, Bronwyn sat straighter. “Sabrina?”
“You sound jealous.” Mo took Bronwyn’s hand and brought it to his lips. “To be clear, I like it.”
She scoffed. “I’m not ... okay. Maybe a little. Jealous sounds too vindictive though. Curious is a better word.”
“Curious with a side of ‘that girl better not have ever dated you’ is what it sounds like to me.”
