Betty asked cautiously, disbelief coloring her voice.

The person she’d negotiated with was incredibly wealthy–she’d imagined someone well past fifty. not this young and affluent.

Inside the car, Maureen caught Betty’s question–Mr. Sutton?

Soon, a man’s voice, warm and smooth as jade, drifted through the speakers: “Yep, it’s me.”

That voice was identical to Geoffrey’s.
