Оглавление“Suddenly I’m guilty before I’ve even had the chance to prove my innocence.”
There was the faintest hint of sympathy in Mingus’s tone as he answered, “I know.”
Joanna blew out a soft sigh. She took up her fork and began to eat. She suddenly paused, the utensil stopped in midair. “You said we’re going to figure out your brother’s next steps. What are you going to do? And what am I supposed to be doing?”
Mingus narrowed his gaze, amusement sweeping across his face. “You are going to sit tight and stay out of trouble. And you’re not going to worry about what I do.”
Her gaze skated across his face, trying to read the emotion staring back at her. She finally shook her head, rising from the table as she grabbed his plate and hers. “Well, I can tell you now, that’s not going to happen, so try again, Mingus Black. I need answers and I don’t plan to leave your side until I get them.”
