I looked at the denials and let my finger hover over the touch scam..
“This?” Baked.
“Yes,” Hanter said. I pressed it and the orange glow around the control panel turned green. “What?” Hunter asked, he must have seen my worry on my law.
I haven’t had time to bake, I don’t have anything to offer the,” I told him. He looked surprised and then shook his head.
“You don’t need to offer them anything, sweetness, they are just here to give us information.”

Haste seok are of the visitor’s chairs as we walked past them and placed il next to his office chair. I got the cue and sat down in it. As Hunter sat down in his chair, fason took the remaining visitor’s chair and John remained standing. I looked at Hunter and mom, but on one seosed to think it was odd that John was left standing. Hummer took my hand, it felt nice and safe. “So?” the asked. Everyone shifted their attention to Ichn. I wouldn’t say he looked news, but he did look like someone who was about to do something he would rather not.
“I have information on the three men and the woman that was at Miss Bishop’s apartment the other night. We have managed to identify all of them,” he started,
“Let’s start with the woman,” Hunter said. His voice didn’t hold the gentleness I was used to. It was cold and straight to the point…
“Name is Amber Willson. Age twenty two. She had a normal upbringing, mother, father and two siblings in a small town in
Π own in Nebraska, Prom queen, head cheesloader, moderate grades. Alter high school she moved south to try a career as an actress. We can’t find any information about her ever being hired as one. After being in the south for a year she got a job at Simon Hunters‘ establishment. The official title was stripper. Hour she ended up these is a little unclear.” John paused, he koked between me and Hunter and his uneasiness was growing,
“Continue,” Hunter Id him.
“It is widely known that the strippers at the establishment performed other services as well, it is also well known that the owner likes to… sample the products. From what we have found out, Simon had a period where he favoured Amber. I sighed. That meant it was a good chance the baby she was carrying was Simon’s. I had no illusions about my ex–husband. I had known about his infidelity from the week after we got married when I received the first of many tails from scomed women that wanted revenge on him by telling his wise about their affair. At first it broke my head every time, and I believed him every time he told me it was the last time. But as the years past, it was just anothus humiliation I had to suffer. Still, it wasn’t fun to air your dirty laundry in from with three men, one of whom I had the hots for
“So there is a confirmed connection between her and my son, Hunter concluded. It wasn’t a question but it did serve a purpose to establish Simon as his son, rather than my ex–husband. It was trivial at bost, but it did make me feel better, John just modded and lasco made a sound that was hard for me to interpret. “What about the men? Hunter asked.
“They are all small–time criminals, from the background check and their rap sheets, we can see that they have been working together since their teenage yours. They have some minor theft, assau and sexual assault charges and convictions for all of them. No muster minds and no aliations with larger crime syndicates,” John told them.
“So what is the connection to this Amber and why wore they at Hana’s place?” lason asked. John was now looking like he would pay large amounts of money to be somewhere else.
“Simon,” he answered.
