Chapter 288: Chapter 288: Kelsey

Kelsey merely smiled. She wasn't fond of how close to the mark Santiago was coming. She could trust Evan, but there were far more she couldn't.

The door opened, admitting the topic of their conversation.

"Mr. Fern醤dez?" Evan laid the agreement in front of Santiago. "If you will please sign these pages, we'll get started lining up proper protection for you."

Santiago snatched up the pen and began signing without reading.

His fear was very real.

She sat back and watched.

Santiago paused after the first signature and skimmed a few paragraphs before signing the other page.

Either he was na飗e, or had been through this before.

Neither would surprise her.

"Kelsey?" Evan muttered.

"Hm?" she didn't take her eyes off Santiago.

Evan placed his hand on her shoulder.

She glanced up at him and he nodded at the door.

Damn it, what now?

"Give us one moment, please?" She picked up her faux files and followed Evan out into the hall.

He pushed the door shut and rubbed at his brow.
