Chapter 17 A Damsel in Distress

The next morning, as Edgar entered his office, he looked at his assistant coldly. “Where’s Jean? Is she back yet?”

Miles looked at the document in his hand and swallowed nervously. “Ms. Eyer hasn’t returned, but we found out where she is.” Edgar sank into his seat. “Where?”
