Death trap

3:57 pm— the bedside clock showed on display and Elma was still running out of her wits trying to pick out the perfect dress for this.

Riccardo had still not told her the overall information of the persons they had to meet. His over-secrecy was beginning to bother her now.

Was he hoping for her to make a mess of herself?

When he'd called earlier, he gave her the venue of the four o'clock engagement. Elma felt relief once she learned the meeting was fixed to hold there at the resort. It was better that way in case she needed an excuse for why she was dressed the way Soledad intended her to.

She managed on a cute little red dress and stepped into her shoes. She had bent over to pick up her bag when Riccardo's text appeared on the Notification bar of her phone.
