Chapter 49
Irene decided that she would be out online if she kept her place as Mrs. Jefferson.
Nearby, the leaves on a tree were rustling from the touch of a slightly chill breeze. It was the early days of autumn, and the sun was much milder.
Tightening her clothes, she hurried along, having planned to cook dinner for Isaac tonight before asking for a divorce.
That was when a car suddenly screeched to a halt, blocking her path while several men quickly alighted. Without saying a word, one of them pulled a black sack over her head while another clasped a hand over her mouth, dragging her into the car before speeding off.

Irene was dumbstruck. “I haven’t driven that car in two months…”
“Don’t lie. We’ve checked-that SUV was registered under your name.”
