Chapter 58
On the way back, Kristin dozed off against the window.
James gestured to Bill to crank up the heat and kill the music, driving smoothly in silence.
“Mr. Bryce, I’ve dug up some dirt… Ms. Turner skedaddled to Crescendo Town solo. The Turner family and the FitzGerald family don’t seem keen on letting her off the hook. Word on the street is Vincent’s trying to strong–arm her into marrying his butler’s son, a psycho. She called the cops and bolted,” Bill said, his voice hoarse.
He couldn’t fathom why all the malice in the world seemed to have it out for this kind–hearted lady.
James had a grim look on his face, his gaze dark as he stared out the car window.
“Back in the day, Ms. Turner must’ve been blind to fall for a guy like Vincent. What a bad luck in the love department!” Bill mused.
Six
years ago, he had sensed Vincent wasn’t worthy of Kristin. But back then, Kristin had eyes only for Vincent.
“Ms. Turner showing up at the club was a fluke. The club’s business manager, Harriet, did time with Ms. Turner and needed an extra hand because of the chamber of commerce dinner. Harriet roped Ms. Turner in to help out as a drink–serving gal initially, but since Ms. Turner probably can’t hold her liquor, Harriet, being somewhat decent, let her work the front desk instead.”
James frowned and glanced at Kristin. If he hadn’t recognized Kristin at the club, she might’ve been in for a rougher time.
“Ms. Turner is shacking up with Harriet in the club’s apartment block, a place that isn’t top–notch,” Bill whispered.
“Let’s head home.” James wasn’t about to let Kristin keep bunking with others in some rental dump.
“To the No.9 Mansion or…” Bill hesitated.
Over the years, James had a fair share of women, most of them taken to the No. 9 Mansion. Linda, the one who’d hung around the longest, always met him there.
James had never brought any woman to his own place.
“Back to Marigold Manor.” replied James
Bill looked back at James in surprise, as if to double–check.
James didn’t say another word, and Bill just drove back.
That was James‘ own pad, a place never sullied by the presence of a woman.

Watching Kristin sleeping, James rubbed his temples. This time he was dead serious about not letting her slip away easily.
