“Natalie, are you okay? You sent me that drawing earlier–I didn’t understand what it meant, so I gave it to Baron. He told me to stay out of it, but the more I thought about it, the more worried I got. Did something happen to you?”

Ever since hanging up with Baron, Renee had been uneasy.

And that drawing looked more like a floor plan than a design sketch.

Renee began to suspect something was wrong. Yet every time she tried calling Natalie, she couldn’t get through.

Luckily, you were smart enough to forward it to Baron. Everything’s settled now. Baron and I will head back tomorrow–I’ll treat you to dinner when we’re back.”
