Stanton Box Set - Page 341

Ben shakes his head calmly. “Check the security footage. I have been in this building and at Joshua’s workplace at all times. I have nothing to hide.”

“Did you hire a hit Mr Stanton? You could definitely afford it.”

Joshua screws up his face. “No, I did not hire a hit,” he snaps. “She probably overdosed.”

The officer shakes his head. “No, she was found in the dockyard hog-tied with a gunshot wound to the back of the head.”

My eyes widen even further. Crap … this is bad. Oh my god, what if the girls are implicated in this?

“Leave please,” Joshua snaps. “My staff and I have nothing to do with this and unless you are going to arrest us or let us have a lawyer present we have nothing further to say.”

They exchange glances and pass a business card to Joshua. “If you think of anything please let us know.”

“I will,” Joshua sighs as he stands. Ben leaves with the officers to show them out.

The door closes behind them and I turn to Joshua in a rush. “Oh my god, what if the girls are implicated in this?”

Joshua looks at me grimly. “Why did they break in there anyway?” he snaps. “What were they thinking?” He shakes his head. “What are they—Starsky and Hutch now?”

I put my hands over my face. “Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god.”

“Calm down.” He takes out his phone and dials a number. “Where are you?” he snaps. “Hurry up.” He hangs up and storms to the kitchen and flicks the jug. “This is a fucking disaster.”

“I know, right, their names should be Dumb and Dumber.” I shake my head with my hands on my temples.

He smirks. “That’s a fitting title.”

I glare at him. “Well deserved,” I snap.

I go to my bag and start rattling through it.

“What are you looking for?” he asks.

“My phone.”

“It’s here on the bench.”

I quickly dial Abbie’s number. “Hi Abbs.”

“Hi chick.” She says cheerfully.

“You need to get over here immediately.”

“I’m at work, what’s up?”

“TC has just been found dead and your and Bridget’s fingerprints are all over her place.”

She goes silent.

“Did you hear me?”

“Shit,” she whispers. “On my way.”

I sit at my desk, deep in thought. This whole blackmail thing is totally out of control and now the stupid girls have got involved it could bring us all undone. I have to ask the question—it’s been playing on my mind. Yet do I really want to know the answer? Ben and Joshua walk in and take a seat at the desk.

“What’s up?” Joshua asks.
