The woman wiped her tears, looked him dead in the eye and sighed. “I’m— Well, I’m Darcy Simmons and I’m—I’m Jesse’s daughter.”
Daughter? What? Jesse didn’t have any kin that Thomas had ever heard of. Jesse had always been all alone…
The woman—Darcy—had hardly gotten the words out when her fancy smartphone rang.
She looked at the phone and frowned. “I don’t know that number.”
Still, she touched the screen to accept the call and lifted the phone to her ear. She was so close that Thomas could hear every crazy word of the call. The oddly distorted voice filled the room.
“Oh, Darcy, honey, you’re just as lovely as your mother, but you do have your daddy’s eyes… And you also have something of mine. I’ll be coming around soon to get it back. You can either cooperate when I see you, or you can end up like your dear old dad. Either way, I get what’s mine. See you soon.”
