Skipper’s POV“Ma’am, you forgot this.”The taxi driver pointed at the ice cream bag I had left on the back seat. I opened the door, picked it up, and hurried away, afraid Rafe was following me.When the security guy opened the gate, he was stunned and even stepped out to see what was chasing me.“Where you robbed out there, Mrs. Cormick?”I wish I had been robbed to have seen Rafe in the city unexpectedly. I have never run the way I did today in my entire life. Luckily, I got a taxi immediately after I stepped behind the mart opposite the ice cream shop; if not, I swear, Rafe would have gotten a hold of me.“Should I inform the police?”What help would the police do? Besides, involving them would even make the mattress worse. Rafe would find me when I do that, and what would I tell the police that he wants from me? Our identity would be at stake then.“Not at all. It broke down at the hospital.”Surprisingly, I met Jesse in the living room, pacing back and forth, tapping his phone.
