“I understand that completely.” Gautier nodded before hesitating. “But I do have some concerns…”

“What concerns?” Mike asked sharply. “Are you afraid Catherine won’t use you once she becomes president?”

“No, of course not!” Gautier denied it outright, though that was precisely what worried him.

He had no relationship with Catherine–they had never even spoken. Once she won the presidency, there was no telling if she would still acknowledge him. But with Mike pressing him, he couldn’t admit to such a
