Adam:
Absolutely. I’m just finishing up this report, and I’ll be right over. Give me ten minutes. Can you chill for that long without trying to get up by yourself?
Me:
I have sour cream, cheddar chips, and a Diet Coke with me.
Adam:
You’re set then. I’ll be there soon. Love you.
Me:
Love you too.
My heart flutters as I lean against the couch.
I never thought my life would lead to this—a boyfriend who is everything I didn’t even know was possible, a baby on the way, and a job I’m loving. The crinkle of the chip bag is loud in my empty studio apartment when I snag a chip and shove it in my mouth.
I’m halfway through the bag when there’s a knock at the door.
Well damn, he really got here quickly.
“It’s open!” I yell, tossing another chip into my mouth.
When I look up to tell Adam not to judge me, I gasp at who is in front of me.
It’s sure as hell not Adam, and this guy is sure as hell supposed to be dead.
Chapter 34
Adam
I’m whistling as I type up the monotonous paperwork that seems to never end. Things are so damn good right now that nothing can bring me down.
“Yo, Loverboy!” Sin says as he walks up to me and tosses a file onto my desk.
“What’s this?”
“A breakthrough.” He grins.
I open it up to see an architecture company and all their inner workings.
“A breakthrough for what exactly?” I ask.
“Cano to Lorentz and Page.”
“We have that already, with Lorentz showing up.” I don’t get it. I’m clearly missing something.
“This firm is where Page and Lorentz run all their business through. All the artifacts, all the money from that.”
I jolt up and look at him. “How the fuck did you find this?”
“So many goddamned hours.” He sighs. “We had to track all the companies for both guys. See what overlapped and then look at anything offshore we could find. All things led to LP Group.”
“They didn’t even come up with a creative name.” I scoff.
“Right? It’s ridiculous how it was right in front us. Obvious as a damn neon sign,” Sin says.
