Josephine was comforting herself, thinking that perhaps it was all just a coincidence. She decided to ignore the message and looked at Sam.

Sam was still talking to Mrs. Jinkins, asking her if she was willing to leave.

Mrs. Jinkins continued, “The other day, I heard Patrick talking to someone on the phone, calling him Mr. Alvarez. Josie, I might be old, but I’m not a fool…” Mrs. Jinkins trailed off, but they both understood what she meant.
