It was only natural, since women like her had nothing going for them. “Oh, and I’ll let you go, but not now.” Harvey laughed then. “Doesn’t matter how many times you say Isaac’s name, he was the one who gave you to me when we first met.

too much-after the latest checkup today, she was showing signs of miscarriage and needed proper rest to avoid that. Since throwing out Isaac’s name was hopeless, she needed to think of something else. Forcing herself to stay calm, she said, “I get it-there’s no escape
