As Mr. Zachary counted out pills, he answered, “Madam Young had him tied up with some business.”

I smiled lightly. “Oh, something to do with Young Corporation? Idris has been up to his ears in work too, lately.”

Mr. Zachary, who had been with the Youngs forever, picked up on my probing even through the small mind talk. He paused, meeting my eyes with a hint of concern. “Madam, is there something on your you want to ask me?”

His question caught me off–guard, and I hesitated, but I went for it, “Mr. Zachary, has grandma run into some trouble with Moore recently?”

He knitted his brows, lost in thought for a moment before he spoke up, “So, you’ve picked up on the tension between Ms. Scott and Madam Young, huh?”

I nodded, “I’ve been swamped with work at Scott Corp and haven’t had much time to check in on grandma. I’m out of the loop. Last time I bumped into her and Moore at the diner, they were clearly at odds. And with grandma’s over–the–top reaction today, I just had to ask–did something go down recently?”

Mr. Zachary gave a small nod, pausing before he replied, “Madam Young’s never been a fan of Ms. Scott, that’s old news. They haven’t had a blowout or anything, but about a month back, Madam Young dragged Charles with her for a trip to Southern City Jail.”
