Chapter 157

• [PRESENT]
• Claire turned around as soon as she texted Claudia’s address to Lucas, only to run into the bartender, the woman who refused to entertain her the moment she learned Claire was at her bar to find Fritz. With Claire’s impeccable description of the man, it was difficult to miss who she was there to find. Yet the woman turned a blind eye and acted as if she couldn’t care less.
• As a result, it came as a surprise when, instead of continuing to pretend unimpressed and indifferent, the barmaid stood in front of Claire, staring her down. This was no surprise visit. The determined look on the woman’s face made it obvious she was there with a purpose. Only, Claire had no clue where to even begin.
