When my phone buzzed with Mo’s number, I expected an offer of a , not an angry text e with an audio file attached

I stared at the ure out what or who had pissed her off in the hours between the shower and her showing up for her shift The waitresses were all flirty because I was the boss The young, rich, single boss They weren’t above trying to get a piece of h Not usually

Maybe it’s baby hor thatsense in a world that made no sense lately

I tapped the audio file, curious what had pissed her off so badly The ent Beck’s voice, heard her talk about how she fucked me and rode my cock Hoould kill Mo because she wasn’t i but lies

Mo had to know they were all lies Didn’t she?

I didn’t have time to hold her hand or deal with her emind to say that shit out loud to an Ashby employee of all people She needed to be dealt with

Now

I picked up the phone and called the one person I needed with me “Terry You around?”

He laughed “Yeah, just pulled into the parking lot Mo took off, but Hulu said she’s here”

“Her shift starts in a fewfor a ride”

“I’m out front”

I was on ent Beck and her bullshit I grabbed nore in this town and h the restaurant

“Mo”

She turned with a bored expression on her face “Yeah?”

“Thanks” I patted the breast pocket where I kept ave ood One way or the other

Mo shrugged and turned back to the bar where she stacked shot glasses and beer s on a tray I waited a second, but she never did turn around Oneto deal with Later

“Where we headed?” Terry pressed the gas before I could answer

“The long stay hotel Agent Beck calls home”

Terry wiggled his blond eyebrows “Business or pleasure?”
