Chapter XXII
Brom nodded his head, indicating to the agent he understood the subtext of what Mike was saying. They both looked at Bette worriedly, thinking it would have been better if all this activity were made official: maybe then more protection would be assigned to Bette, apart from what Brom and the team he assigned were trying to do to protect her and her family, while they all worked to figure out what was going on. Brom blew a breath out in frustration, inwardly thinking that, short of moving into Bette’s place himself, and following her and Tina around 24×7, he didn’t know what else he could do.
Mike glanced at Brom, and nodded at him, as if understanding why the other man was frustrated. He continued, “Meanwhile, Harry did the same digging around as Tim did, but on people who had shown up in the business jet service.” “And did they come up with common things?” Brom asked, impatient for Mike to get to the core of his findings. He knew that Mike was probably going to describe methods the team had used to dig through information next. Bette had been tapping out her thoughts on her tablet as Mike talked, and he could see she was jotting down a list of questions along those lines.
He quickly scribbled a note for Bette on his paper notepad as he talked to Mike. I’ll answer your questions on methods later, ok? As Mike equivocated about how to respond to Brom’s question, Brom twisted his hand to shove his pad over to Bette. He raised his eyebrows at her. She pursed her lips, looked up at him, and then slowly nodded her head. Although hesitant about being in the dark on how Mike and the team were following-up on things, she decided to leave it to Brom to clear those things up for her. So she similarly prompted Mike, “Mike, I think Brom may have come up with a few things on his end, too , and we’ll need to hear what he has to say so that we can then all move to quickly compare everything. That way, we’ll all be able to talk through what we need to do to adjust our plan.”
Bette swallowed and looked at Brom, and then at Mike, admitting, “Besides, the main thing I’m worried about right now is this guy showing up in New York; it’s something we never expected would happen when we started this whole thing a few weeks ago.”

Love this story. Keeps me guessing. Thanks
Hi thanks for the post! I’m sure its going to be someone we least expect it to be. PPS
I’m so glad you are back. Thank you for the excellent update. What a tangled web Bette does weave! There are so many twists and turns to even venture a guess who presents the most danger to Bette and Tina. Is it Eric seeking revenge against Tina? Is it that Lauren person? Her family has a huge art collection to archive. Not Kelly or Jodie, please. So many questions to be answered. Please continue to post.
Omg, this is a amazing story.
I am not sure i ever commented, but this story has everything, Love, danger, intrigues
I wonder who is after Bette and Tina. Maybe a (supposed) close friend of them.
Thank you for sharing your story with us.
Great chapter!!! I so hope its not Jody going after Bette. This story just keeps getting better. Thank you PPS
Hi there, Thanks for checking in! Hope you’re all well (and warm. This snow season is hanging around too long, don’t you think?)
Am trying to figure out how to add a music file — the last scene in this chapter can be way cooler (or hotter!) with the song I wrote the scene for/to. I don’t think what I tried, in trying to hotlink the music, was working. Have figured out the last few chapters for the book … and they rock! (according to random people I asked to preview outlines for them). Just trying to find the time to write them all out. But let me know what you think as they roll out :-)
Oh, the plot definitely grows thicker! Spencer’s the obvious choice of bad guy… too bad that they didn’t let his surname slip, else Tina may have been able to help. That omission may prove costly…
Glad you’re back, post soon! Cheers :)
Oh my, this is very intense and interesting. I hope that the girls are not put through too much danger. Boy oh boy Bette was a busy girl.
Hmmm… I wonder who is after Bette? Can’t figure this one out and that’s a good thing. Post soon please!
Please just let me express my enjoyment of your writing skills and your creativity. I have been a silent reader probably longer

But, due to my desire to continue to read your talent I have traversed the electronic midfield to stay with the new site. Though the idea was very intimidating to me, all for the sake of reading your entertaining stories. Please continue to do so and I promise to move forward with this electronic wizardry Thank you for your creations
