boys?”
    “Said every woman ever born.” Both Sarah and Bella gave a giggle.
    Sarah got serious again. “This sexual assault thing really worried me at first, especially after what happened with us. But I just don’t think he’d ever want to do that to anyone for kicks.”
    “We all make wrong choices. Seems he’s had very hectic younger life. It’s amazing any boy the age of fifteen would commit to raising a child, and become a multi-billionaire along the way.”
    “I wonder why Heather told me. Clearly, no one else knows and no one else is supposed to know.”
    “Maybe she likes you.”
    “I’m sure she likes a lot of people, but they don’t know Brock Devlin is her father.” Sarah was baffled. Why would she reveal such a huge thing to her at a time like this? “I practically told her I’d had dirty sex with her father. Then she told me.”
    Bella laughed. “She must approve of you then.”
    “Do you think so?”
    “For sure. Why else would she offer up the secret?”
    A knock came on the shared door from out in the hall. Sarah and Bella both stared at each other.
    “That can only be one person.” Bella grinned.
    “It’s after midnight. What the hell?” Sarah used a loud whisper.
    “Open the door and find out.”
    Sarah went and opened the door, and the freshly-showered hunk of a man that was Brock Devlin stood outside. “I saw the light under the door. Hoped you’d still be up.”
    He held up a sheet of paper. On it was written, ‘I think I’m bugged. Rick.’
    Sarah stared at words and nodded. “We were about to go to bed.”
    “Time for one drink?” Brock pulled another note from behind the first one. ‘Pack some things. We’re flying out now. Right now. Rick has made direct threats, and I’m not taking any chances.’

    Sarah looked at Bella reading along. “I think Bella can grab us a drink each. Come in.” Bella nodded and ran into Sarah’s apartment. Sarah hoped she’d taken the hint to pack her some personal things. She’d know exactly what she’d need and want.
    Brock stepped into the apartment. “Great. I could do with a scotch after the day I’ve had.”
    “I’m hearing you.” Sarah grabbed her pad and pen off the desk and scribbled, ‘How did you get a flight so fast?’
    He grabbed it from her and wrote below it , ‘I’m a billionaire. Private jet. Just go with it and I’ll tell you all about it later.’
    Sarah raised her hands in the air and shook her head. Of course he’d have a private plane. Getting used to this lifestyle was going to take some time. “The day turned out well for you in the end.”
    “Yes. Still not a nice situation for anyone.” Brock frowned. It was clear the day had taken its toll.
    Bella came back in and put a small carry-on bag into Sarah’s hand and nodded.
    “Here you go. Enjoy. Just this one last drink for me, it’s been a huge a day, and I’m going to crash very soon.”
    “No problem,” Brock answered and winked at Bella.
    Brock held up another prewritten note for Bella . ‘You went to bed and left us and know nothing else. We’ll be in touch.’ Brock smiled over at Bella.
    “I’m way too amped to go to bed yet,” Sarah said.
    “I know just how you feel. My head has so many threads running through it, I’ll be wide awake for weeks.” Brock smiled as he spoke. He was so handsome—if Bella wasn’t here Sarah would just kiss him to relieve all the tension. That really was a bad idea. Must be the exhaustion.
    “Well, I’m off to bed, you two. Don’t be up to late. We all have to function in the office tomorrow.” Bella waved them out the door.
    “Let’s go to my place, Sarah.” Brock gave over-exaggerated nods to tell Sarah to say, ‘yes.’
    “Sure. Why not.”
    Brock smiled and grabbed Sarah’s hand. Sarah hugged Bella hard. Then, they left, and Brock made small talk, all the while directing her with his expressions and body movement. “We might call in sick tomorrow.”
    “Sounds like
