“How did that happen?” Charlene kept her eyes lowered, a tinge of anger flashing past them. ‘That damned Sterling actually ruined my plan.’

Brendan stared closely at Charlene’s face and said, “The most crucial part is that I assigned Sam to take care of Deirdre initially, yet he was suddenly distracted by someone.
