“He asked me to see hint. I did. He asked me to keep Alice safe until he gets to know more about the situation.”

“What situation?”

“I don’t know, Gideon. The only thing that I know is there is a man. He showed me information about him, and I think he is related to what is happening, but I know nothing else. You know him. He likes puzzles. He said he doesn’t want to tell more until he puts the pieces together.”

“Good then. We can have lunch. Gideon, Alice, are you coming with us? Leah is out shopping. We’ll meet her in the city for lunch.”

I folded my arm around Alice’s waist, and I looked at them apologetically.

“Seth, I think that is better if we are going home and having lunch there.”

Seth nodded. He understood me, unlike Ava
