secretary’s cell phone. When his secretary heard what Josie said, her head hurt slightly. “Are you sure,

Josie felt a twinge of guilt.
She knew that the secretary’s question represented Dexter’s position on the matter.

first time seeing someone tardier than me.”
“I’m coming. I’m coming! Start the car, Moses!” Josie chose a dark green evening gown. She thought it
would be cold at night and decided on a coat. In other words, she wanted to keep a low profile.
She planned to show up momentarily before leaving.
The vehicle left the house and headed to a well-known hotel. Josie didn’t know that she was slowly
