"This oddly feels familiar. Kind of like deja vu, except I was the one at the door." Rachel gave Amelia Forrest a long scrutinizing gaze. "You're here to see Darren, aren't you?"
Amelia, usually collected, felt slightly nervous in front of the more composed and colder Rachel Teschmacher. She moved her legs to reposition her stance before saying, "Yes."
Rachel lifted her brow. "Let me guess, Ryan Anders sent you. He's either trying to settle, but I would say he's most likely to offer a deal that could mend the rough start and create an allegiance of sorts between him and Mr. Steele. He's sent threats, hasn't he? Things he plans to do if Darren doesn't settle and back off. And in these threats, he's also offered Darren a partnership, one that he says could protect Darren as long as he's his client."
Amelia frowned, clearly taken aback. "How did you know?"
