Sidney glanced at his phone-it was Fawn.

Since he'd turned her down last time, she hadn't contacted him.

Why was she suddenly calling now?

"Hello, Miss Powell," he answered, keeping his tone polite.

"There is. It's important!" Fawn's voice grew sharper. "Your former boss, she's not as innocent as she seems. I saw her last night checking into a hotel with an old man. Sidney, don't let her fool you!"

Sidney's brow furrowed immediately.

"Do you have proof, Miss Powell?"

"I saw it with my own eyes! How about this-I'll send you the location. Come see for yourself, and you'll know I'm not lying."

Sidney responded, "Alright, send it over."
