“No problem.” I went into my office and put the folder on the table when I heard my cell phone ring.

I was thinking it might be a lot of people except my brother.

“Tyler?”

“Trouble in paradise?” There was a certain tone of debauchery in his voice on the other end of the line that could easily have made me angry.

“Why are you asking?”

“I may no longer work for the firm, but I still know what's going on, as I'm one of the partners.”

“I'm sure it's not just through society that you find out about things.”

“Sometimes it's good to have friends...”

“What did they say to you?” I wanted to get straight to the point.

“That a ghost has appeared.”

“I don't know what Diana wants here.”

“Are you sure?”

“Do you think that if I hadn't known, I would have found a way?”

“Money, probably. That's what she knows we have.”

“It's possible, but she hasn't asked for anything yet.”

“You have to protect the girls.”

“What do you think I'm trying to do?” I raised my voice, a little irritated, even though it wasn't his fault. Even though my brothers were single, they also worried about the girls.

“I know, man, but you'd better find out soon. If you haven't already, get the office investigators on her.”

“I'll put it up.”

“I'm here if you need anything.”

“Thank you, Tyler.”

“Good morning, brother.”

“For you too.”

Even though it didn't seem necessary, I took his advice and put the company's investigators on my sister-in-law. If she had come back after so long, I wanted to know why.

Chapter forty-five

I came out of the bathroom fixing my hair and my grandmother sighed when she saw me.

“You look so beautiful.”

“Thank you.” I smiled at her.

“You're going to tell Thomas you're pregnant, aren't you?”

“I hope so.” I tensed up again when I remembered that subject.
