Chapter 72

My name is Felix Gonzales. It’s important that I talk to you, Mr. Teller.” His eyes turned to Finn. “And Mr. Phelps, too. Please.”

Finn and Ethan exchanged looks. After debating, Ethan unlocked the door and let them inside. Oscar, who’d been bathing himself in the hallway, took one look at Felix and scampered to the bedroom.

“So who are you, Mr. Gonzales?” said Ethan. “And why is it so important?”

Felix fiddled with the letter in his hand, looking rather uncomfortable in the hall. Finn looked between both of them. Ethan was not in the mood to be hospitable, and Felix looked quite fearful of Ethan’s threatened lawsuit.
