Jamie paused subtly, her gaze shifting toward his phone. "What is it? Is it something about the old district?"

"No," Ben replied, setting the phone down quickly to keep her from seeing the screen.

After that, he refused to discuss it further.

Jamie resisted the urge to press him in front of Charlie, opting to hold her questions until later.

But Ben didn't seem inclined to talk. Rubbing his temples, he stood up. "I've stayed long enough. I should head out."

When Jamie moved to see him off, he stopped her.

Watching him leave, Jamie didn't feel the relief she expected. If anything, her worry only deepened.
