“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?”

“Renee, I’m so sorry for making you worry. I’m fine. There was just… a special situation earlier. That drawing couldn’t be seen by anyone else, so I used my work account to send it to you. 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.”
