“I’ll deal with you later,” she said firmly, her voice low but commanding.

Coincidentally, Cliff was with Gerry, and he overheard the call as it came through.

Hearing the urgency in her voice, Gerry reassured her, “Don’t worry. I’ll get you a dress. There’s bound to be a shop near the theater. I’ll be there soon.”

“Are you sure?” Laney asked, her anxiety spilling into her tone.

“The show starts in an hour. Will it really be in time?”

“An hour is plenty,” Gerry said confidently.
