That was the last time I saw you alright. The you that was really
you. You changed after that.
Two weeks went by. I kept my head down, just like we had planned.
I ate room service the whole time. I only ever saw that nice kid
who brought me the meals. A native of Europa. Well, as native as
you can get I suppose.
I lied. It wasn't only him I saw. There was also that damn
insurance man, who brought along a police inspector.
It took him long enough to get to me. Seems like your husband had
lots of associates, Judy. I was at the bottom of the list. Still,
I didn't expect to be on any lists at all, so the visit shook me a
bit.
Turned out the bartender at the Sunset Grand tipped the inspector
off that we all had a little get-together right before your husband
took off on his final trip. I explained to the inspector that it
was a business meeting. He was pretty suspicious after I told him
my racket - insurance. But I smoothed it over pretty well. At
least, I thought I did.
The inspector wasn't part of the regular Cilix police force. He'd
been flown in from IO. Hired directly by the insurance company.
Makes sense, they were on the line for a pretty big payout. He was
tough, tougher than we were expecting.
He kept me talking for four hours straight. I held up well. Your
plan really did tie everything together.
We got away with it, just like you said we would.
