“Are you a friend of Jordan’s?” I looked overwo the door to her own apartment

“Yeah,” I said “Have you seen her?”

“I heard her fu, and when I cahost I asked if everything was okay, and she said she was just really stressed out and had to get out of town She packed a bag in about threethere, asked me to keep an eye on her place, and left,” the wo okay?”

I couldn’t blame Jordan for her reaction, but I wish she’d just waited ato such a severe course of action “It is She’s actually my children’s nanny, and I just think we overwhel her home”

“Okay,” the woo, but this is my apartment, so just let me know if I can help”

“Thanks,” I responded, and the woman started off down the hallway I waited a little bit and then made my oay back out of the apartment and down to my car Once inside, I called Ethan “Yo”

“What the fuck? I’ve been trying to get ahold of so to me,” Ethan hissed

“Yeah, look, I don’t have tiht now, but Harrison is actually in witness protection He was accused of doing some horrible stuff, that he obviously didn’t do, but someone with it out for him sent some of the photos from the crime scene to Jordan and she freaked out and disappeared I’m in front of her aparthbor said she left in a panic this onna ith Cade to see if we can figure out where these pictures came frooing to have to figure out what to tell theonna freak out when she doesn’t pick them up”

“Let’s not get ahead of ourselves,” Ethan said “We need to go into dae control mode I’ll deal with the kids and hold down the fort, and you and Cade get started on figuring out who sent her the photos and where she’s gone to I’ll get Lowe and Rogan on Harrison duty to keep hi off the deep end”

Ethan was truly the leader we needed “Sounds good I’ll call Cade Keep us posted”

“I will, you too,” Ethan said, and then the line went dead

I sent Cade a text telling hi to need to exercise our channels to investigate the strange goings on with Jordan and the package The phone dinged and I se on the screen

‘We will use the law as long as it works for us, and as soon as it doesn’t, we’ll deliver this mystery man the justice he deserves by any means necessary’

I typed a response ‘You read uy’s mouth myself’

Cade

I used the trip to meet up with Oliver to do a bit of al channels than most people had in their social circles, and I knew that I could track down the people who’d reached out to Jordan and get my hands around their necks myself I took all the information Oliver and Harrison were able to provide to me, and called out to everyone I kneould be able to check around their places of business and tell me more

The first thread I chose to folloas Oliver’s telling es had been delivered to Jordan That meant, above all else, that soive that infore I called my contact at the post office, hopeful that he would be willing to give me some answers He was a former witness in a case of mine and wasn’t my number one fan, but where power couldn’t make a man talk, money typically could He was able to infore had been delivered via certifiedin

“You do know that my compatriots and I are very wealthy,” I told hiet information I would otherwise take by force The situation required finesse and I needed the people I was questioning to handle the circumstances with discretion “What would it take for us to be able to figure out exactly where that package came from?”
