“I’m worried about you, Pierre. Jamie’s…” The mention of Jameson made Meredith tear up. “You have to be safe.”
Pierre looked at her, wanting to say something, but he didn’t. “You should go and watch over Jojo.”
Meredith’s heart sank after hearing Joaquin’s name. “Sure. He must be devastated after Jamie’s death. That boy always keeps everything to himself. I’ll take a look at him.”
Since Pierre was asking her to do it, Meredith couldn’t refuse. She stood up and took her handbag. “Take care, Pierre. I’ll come back later.”
“Sure.”
Meredith was delighted that Pierre agreed to her coming to visit him again, and she left with tears in her eyes but a smile on her lips.
The moment she left, Pierre called Niall. The pain on his body kept him from moving, and his head felt fuzzy. Looks like I have to stay here for a while.
Niall came to the hospital shortly after. “What will you need, President Fowler?”
“I need you to keep on investigating. Look into the people who went to shop on the hill, the stall owners, and even the locals around the hill. Leave no stone unturned, and remember, don’t let anyone know you’re investigating. Take it slow and stay in the shadows.” Pierre’s eyes were glinting.
Niall gawked at him. “President Fowler, I know you’re devastated, but Young Master Jamie’s… not here with us anymore. You should accept it.”
Pierre snorted. “No. Jamie’s not dead.”
