Sweet Subterfuge

Kevan’s plane touched down at Bartham early in the moming. He had notified his assistant before getting on the plane. Thus, a
car was waiting for Kevan to pick him up,
Despite the long flight, Kevan didn’t seem tired at all, He went home and got changed.
After that he headed straight to the company without needing any time to get used to the time difference.
Yesterday, Kevan had gone through most of his work that had piled up.
While driving, Kevan’s assistant suggested. “Mr. Rogers, you don’t need to rush back to the office. You should take some time off
to rest at home instead –
With a frown, Kevan waved his hand to dismiss his assistant, who fell silent with a look of concern on his face.
Kevan checked his emails on his phone, browsing through the unread messages that he missed during the light.
He continued receiving updates about Lana’s situation.
Since Yvette’s hospital ward was not a single room, Lana could only sit on the bedside chair for a moment. Sometimes, when the
nurses
weren’t paying attention, she climbed into Yvette’s hospital bed for a nap.
Lana knew that the police were looking for her because Migeila had threatened her before.
“If you’re disobedient. I will send you to the police station and have you rot in jail for the rest of your life!”
When Lana arrived at the hospital, she did not reveal her true identity. She claimed to be a caretaker sent by the Seymour family.
The nurses had their doubts about this. The Seymour family did not even pay for Yvette’s medical expenses. How was it possible
for them to hire a caretaker for Yvette?
Besides. Lana’s current appearance was thin and frail She looked more like a patient rather than a caretaker.
Some of the nurses tried to ask her when the Seymour family would pay for Yvette’s medical expenses. But Lana feigned
ignorance.
She said that she wasn’t close to the Seymour Lamily. She didn’t know how to get in contact with them.

With that, the nurses were at a loss as well,
Kevan’s subordinate sent an email to him.
“Mr. Rogers, should we report this to the police?”
Lana was a wanted fugitive. Her crime of attempted murder was serious enough for a long-term sentence in jail, Her condition
could kill her in jail too.
At any rate, she was no longer a threat to Kevan.
Kevan pondered for a moment after reading the email.
He replied, “Let’s walt a little longer.”
He had to wait until next Saturday at least. Now that he had settled the first matter, another bigger problem cropped up.
After his call with Dylan, he immediately arranged for his men to follow up on Travis parents.
His subordinate had sent an email saying that the relevant documents were in Kevan’s office.
This was the reason why Kevan was so anxious to reach his office as soon as possible.
Although Kevan had completed much of his work in Westonia, his office desk was buried under documents.
He found a thick paper bag hidden under a stack of blue liles.
The word “Hardy” was scribbled on the cover of the paper bag.
Kevan undid the wrapped string on the paper bag and opened it. As he pulled out the documents Inside, his fingers trembled.
