His first instinct wasn’t to help her. It was to wonder if she might be the one Jean warned him. about–someone who could cause serious damage.

He was instantly on guard and turned on his voice recorder.

It wasn’t a big deal. Just a precaution.

If nothing happened afterward, all the better.

But if Julia really did plan to spread lies and cause trouble, he’d have concrete evidence to defend himself.

Jean gave a dry laugh. “Wow. That’s basically a whole bunch of nothing. Classic.”

Easton just smiled and didn’t say anything more.
