The women opened up more after the third party was gone. “Ms. Tanner, what’s your relationship with Yerek? Do you know what he is like?”

Christina was clearly hinting at something. She alluded to the information that Yerek’s reputation was poor due to widespread discussion of his cruelty and ruthlessness.
